Two-time All-Star might have thrown final pitch for Nationals
The Nats appear ready to cut ties with a 37-year-old pitcher
The Washington Nationals, currently vying for the National League Wild Card, may soon be without veteran pitcher Miles Mikolas. After a disappointing 11th MLB season where he went 3-9 with a 5.89 ERA in 24 games, Mikolas could be poised to end his career with the team. The 37-year-old, who once made an impressive comeback after spending three years in Japan, was signed to a one-year, $2.25 million contract in February.
Though the Nationals have not yet announced his roster status, veteran Mikolas' recent performance has cast doubt on his continued MLB future. With Mikolas struggling to make a significant impact, the Nationals might have lost their final chance at a strong pitcher.
