Nats acquire All-Star catcher Gomes from Tribe

The Hot Stove season’s catching carousel continued to spin Friday, as the Nationals completed their second backstop acquisition of the winter by trading for Indians catcher Yan Gomes, a source told MLB.com. The Tribe acquired necessary salary relief and two Minor Leaguers — outfielder Daniel Johnson (the Nats’ No. 7 prospect, per MLB Pipeline) and right-hander Jefry Rodriguez — in the trade between two contending ballclubs.
