The Nationals made a bold move, sending veteran pitcher Miles Mikolas to the minors to make room for rising star Jackson Kent’s MLB debut — a sign they’re prioritizing future talent over fading veteran arms. Mikolas, who struggled with a brutal 5.89 ERA despite a $2.25M contract, joins Zack Littell as the latest offseason signing cut loose. With prospects like Luis Perales and DJ Herz on the horizon, Washington is betting big on youth — even if it means letting go of all three of their offseason signings. Where Mikolas lands next remains uncertain, but his departure clears the way for a rebuild that could pay dividends beyond this season.
