Latest News

Jeremy Hellickson allowed two earned runs over 4 2/3 innings Monday in a no-decision versus the Mets.

It was the regular-season debut for Hellickson, who signed a minor league contract with the Nationals in mid-March. He gave up seven hits and a walk, but he also struck out three and Washington eventually won the game 8-6 after a six-run eighth inning. The 31-year-old right-hander will try to work a little deeper in his next start against the Dodgers. He's not a recommended fantasy option at the moment. Apr 16 - 10:53 PM

Jeremy Hellickson - S - Nationals

Nationals purchased the contract of RHP Jeremy Hellickson from Triple-A Syracuse.

Hellickson will make his Nats debut on Monday versus the Mets, bumping A.J. Cole from the rotation. The veteran right-hander put up a 5.43 ERA, 1.26 WHIP, and 96/47 K/BB ratio over 164 innings last season between the Phillies and Orioles and cannot be trusted in fantasy leagues.

Jeremy Hellickson - S - Nationals

Jeremy Hellickson will indeed make his Nationals' debut on Monday against the Mets.

He'll be taking the spot of A.J. Cole in the Nationals' rotation. The Nationals will wait to announce the corresponding roster move until Monday, but it could be Cole heading down to Triple-A.

Jeremy Hellickson - S - Nationals

Jeremy Hellickson could make his Nationals debut on Monday against the Mets.

It's A.J. Cole's turn, but the Nats are now listing Monday's starter as TBA. Cole was much better in his second start after a disastrous season debut, but this move doesn't come as a surprise. Hellickson held a 5.43 ERA, 1.26 WHIP, and 96/47 K/BB ratio over 164 innings last season between the Phillies and Orioles.

Jeremy Hellickson - S - Nationals

Jeremy Hellickson threw 92 pitches over six innings in a start in West Palm Beach on Monday.

He'll make another minor league start on Saturday and then could be an option for the Nationals' rotation after that. A.J. Cole, who opened the year as the Nats' fifth starter, got pounded for 10 earned runs over just 3 2/3 innings Tuesday in an ugly loss to the Braves. Hellickson signed a minor league contract with Washington in mid-March after going 8-11 with a 5.43 ERA, 1.26 WHIP, and 96/47 K/BB ratio over 164 innings last season between the Phillies and Orioles.

Jeremy Hellickson - S - Nationals

Nationals released RHP Jeremy Hellickson; re-signed him to a minor league contract.

It's a paper move which allows the Nationals to avoid paying Hellickson a $100,000 retention bonus. The veteran right-hander only recently latched on with Washington and only threw four innings in the Grapefruit League, so he's going to need more time to get ramped up. A.J. Cole will begin the year as the fifth starter until Hellickson is deemed ready.

Jeremy Hellickson - S - Nationals

Jeremy Hellickson held the Marlins to one run in four innings while striking out four batters in Friday's Grapefruit League win.

It was his first game action since signing a minor league contract last week. He is battling A.J. Cole for the last spot in the Nationals' starting rotation. The veteran got off to a strong start with the Phillies last year but quickly fell back to Earth. He was traded to the Orioles at the deadline. He finished the season with a combined 8-11 record and a 5.43 ERA in 30 starts. His 5.27 K/9 was third-worst of all qualified starters.

Mar 23 - 10:43 PM

Jeremy Hellickson - S - Nationals

Nationals signed RHP Jeremy Hellickson to a minor league contract with an invitation to spring training.

The "buzz" Jerry Crasnick of ESPN heard about Hellickson with the Nationals turned into a signing about three minutes later in real time. The 30-year-old hurler was a disappointment in 2017 with a 5.43 ERA, but he registered a 3.71 ERA with the Phillies the year before, and at the very worst he should be a durable starter in the back of the rotation for Washington -- assuming he makes the club.

Mar 16 - 5:28 PM

Jeremy Hellickson - S - Nationals

Jerry Crasnick of ESPN reports that he is hearing 'buzz' between RHP Jeremy Hellickson and the Nationals.

Hellickson is a name we haven't heard much about over the winter, as the 30-year-old starter struggled to a 5.43 ERA and struck out just 94 hitters in 164 innings for the Orioles and Phillies, respectively. Still, the Nationals have a need in the back of their rotation, and Hellickson was competent in his 2016 season with Philadelphia. This one makes a lot of sense on paper, anyway.

Jeremy Hellickson - S - Nationals

Jeremy Hellickson has a sore back and may be shut down early.

Hellickson is scheduled to start Sunday's regular-season finale against the Rays, but it appears that might not happen. The 30-year-old impending free agent is sitting on an 8-11 record, 5.43 ERA, 1.26 WHIP, and 96/47 K/BB ratio through 164 innings this season.

Jeremy Hellickson - S - Nationals

Jeremy Hellickson yielded three earned runs over six innings Saturday in a loss to the Rays.

Hellickson struck four, walked one, and surrendered four hits -- including a Lucas Duda three-run shot in the top of the third inning. The 30-year-old impending free agent right-hander will carry an underwhelming 8-11 record and 5.43 ERA into his final start of the season next weekend in Tampa Bay.

Jeremy Hellickson - S - Nationals

Jeremy Hellickson coughed up six runs in three innings and was charged with a loss to the Yankees on Saturday.

He struck out three, walked four and surrendered only four hits -- but two of those were three-run jacks. Didi Gregorius and Greg Bird each hammered big bombs that quickly drove Hellickson from the game. He has a gruesome 7.29 ERA in nine starts since joining the Orioles. For the season he is 8-9 with a 5.47 ERA in 29 starts including his time with the Phillies.

Jeremy Hellickson - S - Nationals

Jeremy Hellickson pitched well in Sunday's loss to the Indians, allowing three runs on four hits over six innings of work.

Hellickson struck out one and didn't walk a batter in the ballgame. The Indians scratched out a run against him in the first inning, then tacked on solo shots from Roberto Perez and Francisco Lindor in the sixth. The veteran right-hander will bring his 5.23 ERA and 1.25 WHIP into Friday's start against the Yankees in New York.

Sun, Sep 10, 2017 11:12:00 PM

Jeremy Hellickson - S - Nationals

Jeremy Hellickson lasted only 2 1/3 innings Tuesday versus the Yankees, allowing five runs – three earned – on two hits and four walks but escaping with a no-decision in the Orioles' 7-6 win.

Hellickson pitched around a couple walks in the second, but things fell apart in the third. He certainly wasn’t helped by Adam Jones dropping a routine flyball, but Hellickson was all over the place in this one with a hit by pitch in addition to the four free passes. Luckily for him, the O's offense rallied. Hellickson has been awful in four of his last five starts, but should the Orioles have expected anything different? He gets the Blue Jays in Toronto and the Yankees in New York next week. Yikes.

Jeremy Hellickson - S - Nationals

Jeremy Hellickson allowed seven hits and seven runs over 4 2/3 innings in Thursday's loss to the Blue Jays.

If there's a silver lining, it's that Hellickson served up only one of Kendrys Morales' three homers on the night. The right-hander also walked four in the contest. It's the second time in three starts that Hellickson has allowed seven runs, and he's got a 6.55 ERA in six starts as a member of the Orioles. Things don't get much easier for the 30-year-old in the AL East, as he'll draw the Yankees in his next start Tuesday.

Batters
Pos	Role	Name
C	1	Matt Wieters
	2	Pedro Severino
	3	Jhonatan Solano 60-Day DL Nationals transferred C Jhonatan Solano from the 10-day disabled list to the 60-day disabled list. The move clears a spot on the 40-man roster for Jeremy Hellickson. Solano has been out for the last week with bone spurs in his right elbow. Apr 16
	4	Raudy Read Suspended Nationals catching prospect Raudy Read has been suspended 80 games without pay for testing positive for a performance-enhancing substance. Read, 23, tested positive for Boldenone, a drug that is on the list of banned PEDs under Major League Baseball's Joint Drug Prevention and Treatment Program. The suspension will be effective at the beginning of the 2018 regular season. Read hit 17 homers with a .767 OPS for Double-A Harrisburg in 2017 and received a September callup to the Nationals after his minor league season was completed. Feb 7
1B	1	Ryan Zimmerman
	2	Matt Adams
2B	1	Daniel Murphy 10-Day DL Daniel Murphy (knee) got five at-bats in a simulated game on Tuesday in extended spring training. Murphy also took 35 ground balls, which is probably the bigger news. We still don't have a clear idea as to when the second baseman will return to the Washington lineup, but this is a step in the right direction. Apr 18
	2	Howie Kendrick
	3	Wilmer Difo
SS	1	Trea Turner
3B	1	Anthony Rendon Sidelined Anthony Rendon (toe) was not in the Nationals' lineup for a seventh straight game Saturday, but manager Dave Martinez said he's available to pinch-hit. That's an interesting revelation, since a pinch-hit appearance would reset the clock on any potential DL stint. What it says is, the team thinks he's close, despite having not played in the past week. Rendon fouled a ball off his toe in a game on April 13 but X-rays came back negative and he's been day to day ever since. The infielder is likely a day or two away from a return to the lineup. Apr 21
LF	1	Adam Eaton 10-Day DL Adam Eaton (ankle) played catch in the outfield on Friday. He will not, however, be activated from the disabled list Friday as originally hoped. Eaton has not had a setback, but rather it seems he just needs a little more time. He's been out since mid-April with a bone bruise in his left ankle. Apr 20
	2	Moises Sierra
CF	1	Michael Taylor
	2	Brian Goodwin 10-Day DL Nationals placed OF Brian Goodwin on the 10-day disabled list with a left wrist contusion. Goodwin injured his wrist last Wednesday, but was used as a pinch-hitter on Sunday. That will push back his potential return. Andrew Stevenson will take his place on the active roster. Apr 17

	6	Joe Ross 60-Day DL Nationals placed RHP Joe Ross on the 60-day disabled list with a right elbow injury. Ross underwent Tommy John reconstructive elbow surgery last July and will miss the majority of the 2018 season. This move cleared out a 40-man roster spot for veteran reliever Joaquin Benoit, who was officially signed to a one-year, $1 million contract on Wednesday morning. Feb 21

R	1	Sean Doolittle
	2	Ryan Madson
	3	Brandon Kintzler
	4	Koda Glover 60-Day DL Koda Glover (shoulder) has been throwing up to 75 feet. Glover is progressing but still has a ways to go in his recovery from right shoulder inflammation. The right-hander won't be eligible to return from the disabled list until late May. Apr 12
	5	Shawn Kelley
	6	Joaquin Benoit 10-Day DL Nationals placed RHP Joaquin Benoit on the 10-day disabled list with a right forearm strain. Benoit made three appearances this spring before being shut down. It's unclear when he might be ready to join the Nats' bullpen. The 40-year-old signed a one-year, $1 million deal with Washington over the winter. Mar 27
	7	Matt Grace D.L. Nationals placed RHP Matt Grace on the 10-day disabled list with a left groin strain. Grace was grappling with a left hip flexor Friday, but the team says it's a groin strain that sent him to the DL. Grace owns an ugly 5.06 ERA but a 0.94 WHIP and has 10 strikeouts in 10 2/3 innings of work this year. He'll be replaced on the active roster by Trevor Gott. Apr 21
