EDGE Analysis
Sadzeck was at Triple-A St. Paul in the Twins organization last season, holding a 5.40 ERA and 42:26 K:BB over 35 frames. The 6-foot-7 right-hander will give Pittsburgh some right-handed relief depth at Triple-A Indianapolis.

Sadzeck signed a minor-league deal with the Nationals on Thursday, Jesse Dougherty of The Washington Post reports.

Sadzeck was designated for assignment by the Brewers on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
Sadzeck was called up July 13 and appeared in two games, surrendering three runs on four hits and a walk while striking out two over three innings. He will now either report to Triple-A Nashville, get claimed by another team or be released outright, the first of which seems most likely. Ethan Small was called up from Nashville on Monday to replace Sadzeck on the active roster.

The Brewers selected Sadzeck's contract from Triple-A Nashville on Wednesday.
EDGE Analysis
Sadzeck is back in the majors for the first time since 2019, when he made 20 relief appearances for Seattle. Prior to Wednesday's call-up, the 30-year-old right-hander had spent the entire 2022 campaign with Nashville. Over 28 innings with the affiliate, Sadzeck turned in an 0.96 ERA, 1.00 WHIP and 35:12 K:BB. He'll likely see most of his initial opportunities with Milwaukee in lower-leverage spots.

Sadzeck, who signed a minor-league contract with the Brewers on Dec. 1, has received an invitation to MLB spring training.
EDGE Analysis
The 30-year-old right-hander last appeared in the majors in 2019 with the Mariners, making 20 relief appearances while posting a 2.66 ERA and 27:15 K:BB across 23.2 innings. He's struggled to bounce back from a serious elbow injury suffered that same season, however, as he missed the entire 2020 campaign and turned in middling numbers (4.84 ERA, 1.50 WHIP in 44.2 innings) at the Triple-A level in 2021.

Sadzeck was reassigned to minor-league camp Monday, Scott Merkin of MLB.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Sadzeck was vying for a bullpen role in spring training, though he wasn't expected to open the season in the big leagues. He last pitched in the majors in 2019 as a member of the Mariners, logging a 2.66 ERA and 1.39 WHIP with a 27:15 K:BB across 23.2 innings.

Sadzeck signed with the White Sox as a non-roster invitee Thursday.
EDGE Analysis
The 29-year-old righty owns a strong 2.18 ERA in 33 career innings at the highest level, though that's not backed up by his poor combination of a 22.4 percent strikeout rate and 17.1 percent walk rate. He missed most of 2019 with elbow troubles and didn't make the Mariners' 40-man roster at any point last season, so his chances of cracking the White Sox's Opening Day roster appear to be slim.
