PHILADELPHIA -- The Washington Nationals tried to improve what has been a terrible bullpen by agreeing to terms on a $1 million contract for 2025 with Andrew Chafin on Thursday. The team also designated Colin Poche for assignment. Both relievers are left-handers. Chafin, who turns 35 next month, was released Wednesday from a minor league contact with the Detroit Tigers. He split last season between the Tigers and the Texas Rangers, going 4-3 with a 3.51 ERA across 56⅓ innings in 62 appearances. Chafin's 500 appearances since the start of 2017 are the most among relievers in the majors. Poche was 1-2 with an 11.42 ERA in 13 games with the Nationals this season.
