Robert Gsellman Signs Minors Deal With Nationals
11 months agoFree-agent right-hander Robert Gsellman signed a minor-league deal with the Washington Nationals on Wednesday. He'd make $900,000 if he's in the majors in 2024. Gsellman spent last year pitching in Japan, where he posted a 4.32 ERA and 1.52 WHIP in 139 2/3 innings pitched. In 2022 with the Chicago Cubs, he only pitched 15 1/3 innings at the major-league level and allowed 10 runs (eight earned) on 17 hits (two homers) while walking three and striking out nine. In parts of seven major-league seasons, Gsellman has a 4.60 ERA (4.30 FIP) and 1.39 WHIP with 15 saves, 126 walks and 289 strikeouts in 366 innings over 184 appearances (34 starts) for the Cubs and New York Mets. The 30-year-old will most likely begin the 2024 campaign at Triple-A Rochester and give Washington some minor-league relief depth to open the year.
