The Nationals are making bullpen moves as they chase playoff form, calling up Paxton Schultz from Triple-A Rochester after letting go of Matt Krook — who imploded in his latest outing, walking three batters without an out. Krook’s brief return was a stopgap after PJ Poulin’s injury, but his shaky performance likely seals his fate. Schultz, a January pickup from Toronto, showed promise in the minors with a stellar 2.30 ERA, but struggled in the majors with a 5.87 ERA — until now. With the playoffs looming, Schultz gets a fresh chance to prove he can translate his Triple-A dominance to the big leagues and become the reliable arm the Nationals desperately need.
