Floro signed a one-year, $2.25 million contract with the Nationals on Tuesday.
Analysis: Floro posted a 2.85 ERA and 1.18 WHIP with the Dodgers and Marlins between 2020-22, but his numbers declined sharply last season with a 4.76 ERA and 1.54 WHIP across 56.2 frames. Hoping for a return to form from Floro, the Nationals will add him to their bullpen, and the 32-year-old righty will likely work in middle relief to begin the year. Jeter Downs was designated for assignment in a corresponding move.
Dylan Floro Cut loose by Minnesota
The Twins released Floro on Sept. 29.
Analysis: Floro was able to get a head start on his offseason after he went unclaimed off waivers when the Twins designated him for assignment Sept. 26. Between stops with Miami and Minnesota in 2023, Floro notched seven saves, nine holds and five wins and struck out more than a batter per inning, but he also accrued an underwhelming 4.76 ERA and 1.54 WHIP across 62 appearances.
