The Washington Nationals requested unconditional release waivers on right-hander Chad Kuhl on Monday. The team also recalled relief pitcher Amos Willingham from the minors ahead of the series opener against the Seattle Mariners. Kuhl was designated for assignment on Saturday and wasn't claimed on waivers. He'll head back to the free-agent market after inking a minor-league deal with the Nats in February. The 30-year-old veteran struggled in 16 appearances (five starts) in the big leagues this ...

Washington Nationals right-hander Chad Kuhl, who recently moved to the bullpen, earned his first career save on Friday when his team beat the Kansas City Royals 12-10. He recorded the final five outs of the game, allowing one hit and no walks while striking out two. Over seven appearances and five starts, Kuhl owns an 8.06 ERA, 1.79 WHIP, and 18.3% strikeout rate over 25.2 innings. Both Kyle Finnegan and Hunter Harvey pitched in back-to-back contests before Friday, so it wasn't surprising ...

Washington Nationals right-hander Chad Kuhl (foot) was activated from the 15-day injured list. Kuhl has been out of commission since the end of April because of a right foot injury. The 30-year-old has appeared in five games this season, starting all of them and amassing an 0-2 record with a hideous 9.41 ERA. As a result, it's unlikely Kohl's status will impact many fantasy managers. That won't change unless he begins to play better. In a corresponding move, the team optioned pitcher Hobie ...

The contest on Friday between the Pittsburgh Pirates and Washington Nationals has been postponed due to inclement weather. The game will be made up on Saturday as part of a split-admission doubleheader. Left-hander Rich Hill was scheduled to take the ball for the Pirates on Friday, with right-hander Chad Kuhl opposing him on the mound for the Nationals. Both starting pitchers will now likely take the hill for Game 1 of the doubleheader on Saturday. Fantasy managers need to make sure to pull ...

The Washington Nationals signed free-agent right-hander Chad Kuhl to a minor-league deal on Saturday that includes an invite to major-league spring training. The 30-year-old struggled with the Colorado Rockies last year and went 25-30 with a 4.44 ERA in 100 games (84 starts) with the Pittsburgh Pirates before that. He'll give the Nationals more starting pitching depth. In his 27 starts for the Rockies in 2022, Kuhl produced a career-worst 5.72 ERA (5.26 FIP), 1.55 WHIP and weak 17.8 percent ...

The Colorado Rockies reinstated right-hander Chad Kuhl (hip) from the 15-day injured list on Thursday and designated right-hander Robert Stephenson for assignment in a corresponding move. Kuhl is expected to rejoin the starting rotation to pitch against the New York Mets on Friday night. The 29-year-old missed three weeks due to a right hip strain, and he'll be extremely risky in fantasy lineups in his first start back against the Mets. He made one minor league rehab start for Triple-A ...

Colorado Rockies starting pitcher Chad Kuhl turned in an excellent start in Monday's 4-0 win against the Dodgers. Kuhl carved through a tough lineup, turning in a complete-game shutout with three hits, no walks, and five strikeouts. The 29-year-old has produced good numbers overall this season, compiling a 5-5 record with a 3.49 ERA, 57 strikeouts, and 29 walks through 14 starts and 77 1/3 innings pitched. He will look to turn in another strong start in a much better matchup against the ...

Colorado Rockies starting pitcher Chad Kuhl (hip) was coasting through his start against the Philadelphia Phillies on Monday. Unfortunately, his hip flexor began to tighten up after the sixth inning. Rockies manager Bud Black sent him out for warm ups prior to the seventh inning, but decided not to push him. Kuhl pitched six scoreless innings in the game, allowing just two hits and one walk while striking out four. He has now allowed just one earned run over his first 10 1/3 innings of the ...

The Colorado Rockies agreed with former Pittsburgh Pirates right-hander Chad Kuhl on an undisclosed deal on Monday, according to a source. Kuhl went from the starting rotation to the bullpen last year after a bout with COVID-19. In total, he went 5-7 with a 4.82 ERA and 1.43 WHIP while striking out 75 and walking 42 in 80 1/3 innings over 28 appearances (14 starts) for the Bucs. It's unknown if the Rockies view him as a starter or reliever, but he'll at least give them some options for the 2022 ...

Pittsburgh Pirates starting pitcher Chad Kuhl allowed one run on four hits while striking out seven over six innings of work in a 2-1 win over the Braves on Tuesday. Kuhl has been very inconsistent this year, and currently sports a 2-5 record and 4.73 ERA over 11 starts. However he's had several solid outings recently, as he's recorded quality starts in four of his last six outings. But in the middle of that span he's also posted two outings where he's pitched fewer than five innings while ...
