Eddy Yean signed as an international free agent by the Washington Nationals<\/a> in 2017.<\/p>\n

He was involved in the trade for Josh Bell in 2020.<\/p>\n

And now, Yean is coming home.<\/p>\n

The Nats have reached a free agent contract with Yean, reports The Washington Post’s Spencer Nusbaum<\/a>.<\/p>\n

“Righty had a 3.06 ERA in AAA last year,” Nusbaum wrote on X. “Power arm, and the Nats hope they can help him develop more swing and miss. Just 24 y\/o.”<\/p>\n

It’s very early in the offseason, so where Yean will end up fitting on the organizational depth chart remains to be seen.<\/p>\n

But it’s always good to get a pitcher with youth still on his side that throws hard.<\/p>\n

There likely would be a coach here or there in the system that even remembers Yean, or a player or two Yean played with. It’s always good to have familiar faces.<\/p>\n

The Nats have a lot of work to do to rise into contention. Having some upside in Yean join the system is a solid move.<\/p>\n
