In 2010, the Pittsburgh Pirates traded pitcher Matt Capps to the Nationals. In Washington, Capps went 3-3 in 47 appearances, posting a 2.74 ERA to win his first All-Star appearance. The 6-foot-2, 250lb right hander retired in 2012 with a career ERA of 3.52.

When the Nationals selected outfielder Bryce Harper with their first overall pick in 2010, they knew that he would not dissapoint. In his freshman season of 2012, Harper hit .270/.340/.477 with 22 home runs and 59 RBIs, winning an All-Star nod and the NL Rookie of the Year Award.

In 2015, Harper led MLB in runs, home runs and on-base percentage, to win the first MVP Award in Nationals history. In 2019, the Vegas-native inked a thirteen-year, $330 million deal with the Philadelphia Phillies, marking the largest contract in Phillies franchise history.
