Trea Turner is called up and Tyler Moore to the DL. This is an amazing development as we wrote the other day in a piece about Trea Turner to 2nd base and quotes from Jim Bowden.

If Trea Turner is starting tonight at 2nd base, then Jim Bowden was on to something. Not sure whose place Trea Turner takes on the 40 man roster.
@JimBowden_ESPN with strong words that @treavturner should be the #Nats starting 2nd baseman w/ Rendon moved to 3B or LF. #BoldJim

UPDATE: As @zmunchkin commented, Aaron Barrett gets moved from the 15 day DL to the 60 day DL which will free up the 40 man spot for Trea Turner without necessitating a DFA.
