Washington Nationals sign veteran pitcher Andrew Chafin to boost their struggling bullpen.

The Washington Nationals signed left-handed pitcher Andrew Chafin to a $1 million contract for 2025, aiming to bolster their struggling bullpen. Chafin, 35, was recently released by the Detroit Tigers after performing well in the minor leagues and with the Tigers and Rangers in 2024. The Nationals designated Colin Poche for assignment, as he had a poor 11.42 ERA this year. Chafin's addition is expected to provide reliable relief pitching.
