The Nats edged the Cubs 4-3 after a dizzying two day stretch that saw eight players traded away. Al & Mark digest what the deadline moves mean for the organization moving forward and analyze the remarkable Jon Lester trade. They also point out just how different the farm system is now regarded after acquiring a dozen prospects. (13:46) Reaction to Friday night's starting lineup that looks a lot different after all the moves. Should Victor Robles return to the leadoff spot as opposed to Andrew Stevenson?  (20:05) Ryan Zimmerman was retained unlike most veterans ahead of the trade deadline. Was there a possibility the Nationals would have dealt him away? Same question applies to Josh Bell. (26:08) Paolo Espino earned his third win of the season as he pitched into the sixth inning. This comes as he only had three hours notice that he would be taking the mound. (32:04) Listener submitted emails reacting to the flurry of trades. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit podcastchoices.com/adchoices
