Mikolas DFA'd by Nationals as they pivot to a youth-filled rotation
The Washington Nationals designated veteran right-hander Miles Mikolas for assignment, potentially ending the 37-year-old's MLB career after a tough season (24 games, 11 starts, 3-9, 5.89 ERA over 113 innings). With Washington pushing a youth movement led by CJ Abrams and James Wood, Jackson Kent was set to start soon, leaving Mikolas as the odd man out after a year of mixed results.
