The Nationals are cutting ties with pitcher Zack Littell after his disappointing 2024 season—his 4.97 ERA and below-average performance made him a liability on the mound. Though they hoped another team would claim him via waivers to avoid paying his remaining $4M buyout, no club stepped up due to the financial risk. Now Washington’s stuck with the full cost, but they’ve freed up a roster spot—and shed innings-based incentives—making room for younger arms. A costly lesson in baseball’s business side when talent doesn’t match the contract.
