Amos Willingham - Pushed off 40-man roster The Nationals designated Willingham for assignment Saturday, Bobby Blanco of MASNSports.com reports.
Impact With Jorge Lopez (groin) signing a one-year deal with the Nats on Saturday, Willingham will end up as the odd man out of a roster spot. The 26-year-old righty spent most of his time with Triple-A Rochester last season, where he logged a 3.69 ERA and 1.35 WHIP alongside a 71:31 K:BB across 68.1 innings.

Jorge López - Headed to Washington Lopez (groin) signed a one-year, $3 million contract with the Nationals on Saturday, Jon Heyman of the New York Post reports.
Impact After being unceremoniously cut by the Mets midway through last season, Lopez signed with the Cubs and immediately went on one of the best statistical runs of his career, turning in a 2.03 ERA and 1.09 WHIP across 26.2 innings with Chicago. The 31-year-old reliever still holds a 5.25 ERA over his nine-year career, but his recent performance and a lack of depth in Washington's bullpen could allow him to appear regularly in high-leverage situations.

Luis García - Agrees to deal with Nats Garcia and the Nationals agreed to a one-year contract worth $4.5 million to avoid arbitration Thursday, Andrew Golden of The Washington Post reports.
Impact Garcia enjoyed a breakout 2024 season, posting a career-best .162 ISO and 111 wRC+ across 528 plate appearances. He should play a key role in the middle of the Nationals lineup again in 2025 and will see a pay raise of roughly $2.6 million as compared to last season.

Josiah Gray - Gets deal for 2025 Gray agreed to a one-year, $1.35 million contract with the Nationals on Thursday to avoid arbitration, Andrew Golden of The Washington Post reports.
Impact Gray underwent Tommy John surgery and an internal brace procedure in July to address a partial tear of the UCL in his right elbow. The Nationals haven't yet ruled him out for the entire 2025 campaign, but any appearance for the 27-year-old righty would almost certainly come in the final weeks of the season.

MacKenzie Gore - Avoids arbitration The Nationals and Gore avoided arbitration by agreeing to a one-year contract Thursday, Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.com reports.
Impact There's no word yet on the financial details. Gore had an uneven but ultimately pretty encouraging 2024 season, finishing with a 3.90 ERA, 1.42 WHIP and 181:65 K:BB over 166.1 innings covering a career-high 32 starts.

Derek Law - Receives $2.75 million The Nationals and Law avoided arbitration by agreeing to a one-year, $2.75 million contract Thursday, Andrew Golden of The Washington Post reports.
Impact Law was one of Washington's most reliable relievers in 2024, posting a 2.60 ERA, 1.18 WHIP and 76:24 K:BB over 90 innings. He could be in the mix for saves in 2025 as things stand right now, but it wouldn't be a surprise to see the Nationals bring in a closer from outside the organization.

Riley Adams - Avoids arbitration The Nationals and Adams avoided arbitration by agreeing to a one-year, $850,000 contract Thursday, Andrew Golden of The Washington Post reports.
Impact Adams is a career .224/.304/.378 hitter over parts of four big-league seasons and was eligible for arbitration for the first time. He's out of minor-league options, so he'll either open 2025 as the Nationals' backup catcher or be exposed to waivers.

Impact The transaction frees up a spot on the 40-man roster for the addition of Amed Rosario. Adon holds a career 6.66 ERA over 35 appearances (26 starts) at the major-league level. He ended the 2024 season on the injured list with a biceps strain and it's not clear what his current health situation is.

Amed Rosario - Gets one-year deal with Nats The Nationals signed Rosario to a one-year, $2 million contract.
Impact All four of the Nationals' projected starting infielders bat left-handed, to the right-handed hitting Rosario is a nice fit as someone who should play regularly against lefty pitchers. The 29-year-old sports a career .298/.337/.460 batting line versus southpaws and slashed .294/.325/.412 against them in 2024.
