Shinnosuke Ogasawara Signs with the Washington Nationals
With his posting window expiring today, Japanese lefty Shinnosuke Ogasawara has found a deal, signing a two-year contract with the Washington Nationals. The financial particulars for the deal aren’t out just yet, and even when they are, it’ll be challenging to evaluate the “value” of the signing (he’s a tough one to project in MLB). The Cubs were reportedly among the teams interested in Ogasawara at some point, though we never knew just how serious that interest was.
Assuming Ogasawara works as a starting pitcher for the Nationals, it’s possible the Cubs wouldn’t have been his preferred landing spot anyway, because they may not add another true starting pitcher.
The Washington Nationals have officially signed Japanese outfielder Shinnosuke Ogasawara to a multi-year contract. Ogasawara, known for his speed, power, and defensive skills, is expected to make an immediate impact on the Nationals’ roster.
The 27-year-old Ogasawara has been playing professionally in Japan for the past few years, where he has consistently put up impressive numbers. In 2021, he hit .300 with 25 home runs and 30 stolen bases, showcasing his versatility as a player.
The Nationals are thrilled to add Ogasawara to their lineup, as they believe he has the potential to be a game-changer in the MLB. With his combination of speed, power, and defensive prowess, Ogasawara is sure to be a valuable asset to the team as they push for a playoff spot in the upcoming season.
Fans are excited to see what Ogasawara can bring to the Nationals and are looking forward to watching him play in the MLB for the first time. Stay tuned for more updates on Ogasawara’s journey with the Washington Nationals.
