The Nationals have released outfielder , Spencer Nusbaum of the Washington Post. Garrett opened the season in Triple-A Rochester. He was designated for a signment in spring training but cleared waivers and remained with the organization as a non-roster player. The 2025 season hasnt been kind to the 29-year-old Garrett. Hes tallied 51 plate appearances with the Red Wings and recorded an anemic .087/.176/.130 batting line with a mammoth 43.1% strikeout rate. He has just one hit and 13 strikeout in his past 31 plate appearances with Rochester. Garrett has appeared in parts of three major league seasons between the Nationals and Diamondbacks. In that time, hes a .276/.341/.492 hitter 25% than league average, per wRC+. Theres plenty of reason to take that output with a hefty grain of salt, though. Garrett has benefited from a .369 average on balls in play and has Bryan Hudson Jersey gone down on strikes in 30.2% of his major league plate appearances. Big league playing time has been scarce for Garrett in recent seasons, thanks largely to injury. He suffered fractures in his fibula and ankle when crashing into the outfield wall at Yankee Stadium in 2023 and spent more than eight months recovering. He logged just six MLB plate appearances in 2024 and spent the rest of the season between Double-A and Triple-A, where he hit only .249/.348/.333 in 79 games. At his best, Garrett has shown himself to be capable of clobbering left-handed pitching. Hes a career .279/.333/.541 hitter when holding the platoon advantage, and while his BABIP (.362) and strikeout rate (30.8%) even in those situations point to regre sion, his power against lefties is legitimate. Hell need to show more than he did in Rochester this year, but the track record and two remaining minor league option seasons should help him find a minor league deal with another club.
