WASHINGTON — Right-hander Michael Soroka has agreed to a $9 million contract for the 2025 season with the Washington Nationals. The club is in need of pitching as its rebuild continues and hope the 2019 NL All-Star can show the form he displayed before a pair of significant leg injuries. Thursday's move represents the first noteworthy addition Washington general manager Mike Rizzo has made this offseason after a second straight 71-91 finish. The 27-year-old Soroka went 0-10 with a 4.74 ERA in 79 2/3 innings across 25 appearances for the Chicago White Sox last season, including nine starts.
