Description
The Washington Nationals have signed left-handed reliever Cionel Perez to a minor-league contract, potentially earning $1.9 million plus incentives. Perez, 29, has 8 years of MLB experience, with his best season in 2022 (7-1, 1.40 ERA, 55 Ks). However, he struggled in 2023-2024 (4.04 ERA) and was designated for assignment in May. Despite his recent struggles, Perezs potential and low cost make him an attractive addition to the Nationals bullpen.
