The Nationals signed pitcher Miles Mikolas to a one-year deal to strengthen their rotation ahead of the 2026 season.
The Washington Nationals have signed veteran pitcher Miles Mikolas to a one-year, $2.25 million deal with incentives, adding him to their rotation ahead of the 2026 season.
The move comes after DJ Herz was placed on the 60-day IL following Tommy John surgery.
Mikolas, 37, brings durability, having made at least 31 starts each year since 2022, though his 2025 performance declined significantly with a 4.84 ERA and career-worst strikeout and barrel rates.
Despite his drop-off, he logged 156 1/3 innings and consistently pitched five or more innings.
The signing aims to bolster a rotation featuring young, unproven arms and improve overall reliability.
