Michael Soroka and the Washington Nationals agree to a $9 million contract for the 2025 season
Right-hander Michael Soroka has agreed to a $9 million contract for the 2025 season with the Washington Nationals4 DAYS AGO • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Michael Soroka - Signs with Washington Soroka agreed to terms on a one-year, $9 million contract with the Nationals on Thursday, Mark Feinsand of MLB.com reports.
Impact Soroka started last season with a 6.39 ERA and 1.51 WHIP after nine starts with the White Sox. The right-hander's performance improved dramatically after moving to the bullpen, posting a 2.75 ERA and 1.22 WHIP alongside a 60:20 K:BB over 36 frames as a reliever. The Nationals will attempt to transition Soroka back into a starting role, per Andrew Golden of The Washington Post, but given the 27-year-old's injury history and the fact he hasn't reached 100 innings since 2019, the Nationals may look to limit his workload.

Evan Reifert - Taken in Rule 5 draft The Nationals selected Reifert with the fifth pick in the Rule 5 draft Wednesday, JJ Cooper of Baseball America reports.
Impact Reifert has been a known reliever prospect for a couple years, thanks largely to some very high strikeout rates in the lower levels. He missed most of 2023 with a shoulder injury but had a strong showing down the stretch last season at Double-A, logging a 1.96 ERA, 0.92 WHIP and 65 strikeouts in 41.1 innings. Reifert will likely begin the year in a low-leverage role, but there's a chance for upward mobility in a shallow Nationals bullpen.
