Former Atlanta Braves pitcher Michael Soroka (better known in Atlanta as Mike) is returning to the National League East. According to Ken Rosenthal, he signed with the Washington Nationals.
The Nationals plan to use Soroka as a starter, according to MLB.com, which is what he's done for most of his career.
The former Braves righty spent the 2024 season with the Chicago White Sox after being traded there last offseason. The Braves acquired reliever Aaron Bummer in exchange for Soroka, left-hander Jared Shuster, shortstop Braden Shewmake, infielder Nicky Lopez and right-hander Riley Gowens.
