Quick Notes: Washington Nationals sign John Nogowski to a minor-league deal

The Washington Nationals will be signing first baseman/outfielder John Nogowski to a minor-league deal.

Wednesday night, the Washington Nationals signed first baseman/outfielder John Nogowski to a minor league contract, reports Jesse Dougherty of the Washington Post. He’ll head to Double-A Harrisburg for the time being.

Nogowski, 29, has seen big league time in part of two seasons, including 52 games between the St. Louis Cardinals and Pittsburgh Pirates in 2021. He posted a combined .233/.301/.310 batting line in that small sample of 143 trips to the plate and became a minor league free agent when the Bucs released him from their Triple-A affiliate in September.
