Report: Greg Holland, Nationals Agree to Contract After Cardinals Release

Free-agent reliever Greg Holland and the Washington Nationals reportedly agreed to terms on a contract Sunday, per Jon Heyman of Fancred.

Holland joined the St. Louis Cardinals on a one-year, $14 million deal shortly before the start of the season, but his time in the Midwest proved to be a dud after he was removed from the closer role in favor of Bud Norris.

In 32 appearances that spanned 25 innings, the three-time All-Star recorded as many strikeouts (22) as walks while allowing 34 hits and racking up three blown saves.
