Jose Urena Agrees To Minor-League Deal With Nationals
2 years agoFree-agent right-hander Jose Urena agreed to a minor-league deal with the Washington Nationals on Wednesday. The 31-year-old right-hander was designated for assignment and released by the Colorado Rockies last week, but he'll land on his feet quickly with the rebuilding Nats. He has previous stops with the Miami Marlins, Detroit Tigers and Milwaukee Brewers in his nine-year career. Urena made five starts for the Rockies this year before they cut him loose, allowing 22 runs (20 earned) on 27 hits (a league-high nine home runs surrendered) while walking 14 and striking out nine in 18 1/3 innings. He will report to Triple-A Rochester and hope for better results and for an eventual call-up to D.C. Fantasy managers can ignore Urena for now.
