"Met's Lefty Finds New Home in Nation's Capital: In a move that signals a fresh start for the struggling southpaw, the New York Mets have traded the designated-for-assignment left-handed pitcher to the Washington Nationals in exchange for a cash consideration. The trade marks the latest chapter in the lefty's tumultuous tenure with the Mets, who have been trying to find a stable spot for the pitcher in their rotation. With the Nationals now taking on the lefty's contract, it remains to be seen whether the pitcher will get a second chance to prove himself in the nation's capital. The deal comes as the Mets continue to make roster moves ahead of the upcoming season."
The Mets traded the lefty, who had been designated for assignment once more, to the Nationals for cash considerations on Thursday.
