The Cubs signed Tetreault to a minor-league contract Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Tetreault, 27, missed most of the 2023 season with a shoulder issue before becoming a minor-league free agent. The right-hander made four starts for the Nationals in 2022, allowing 12 earned runs with a 9:10 K:BB over 21 innings. He's been assigned to the Arizona Complex League Cubs for now but should eventually wind up at Triple-A Iowa.

Tetreault (shoulder) began a rehab assignment with High-A Wilmington last Tuesday and has surrendered 10 runs (eight earned) on 14 hits and two walks while striking out four in 5.2 innings over his first two starts for the affiliate.

EDGE Analysis

Tetreault is in the process of getting stretched out again after he hadn't pitched since suffering a stress fracture of his right scapula in early July of last season. The 26-year-old right-hander made four starts for the Nationals in 2022 but was moved off the 40-man roster over the winter. He'll likely settle into the rotation at Triple-A Rochester once he completes his rehab assignment and is activated from the 7-day injured list.

The Nationals reassigned Tetreault (shoulder) to minor-league camp Tuesday, Jessica Camerato of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Tetreault had yet to resume throwing bullpen sessions during spring training while he continues to recover from a stress fracture to his right scapula, an injury he sustained last summer. When healthy, Tetreault is expected to be part of Triple-A Rochester's rotation, though he appears likely to open the 2023 season on the affiliate's injured list.

Tetreault (shoulder) is about a week away from being cleared to throw off a mound, Bobby Blanco of MASNSports.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Tetreault is able to go through his throwing motion off a mound without a ball, which has gone well. Soon, he'll be able to test things out for real. The 26-year-old is being brought along slowly this spring following a stress fracture in his right scapula suffered last July. He seems likely to get a late start to the season and figures to head to Triple-A Rochester once he's ready.

EDGE Analysis

Tetreault suffered a stress fracture in his right scapula last July and is being brought along slowly this spring in Nationals camp. The 26-year-old seems doubtful to crack the Opening Day roster in Washington, but he'll likely have a rotation spot at Triple-A Rochester whenever he's deemed ready to fill it.

Tetreault (shoulder) was outrighted to Triple-A Rochester on Tuesday, Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

He never made it back from an early-July stress fracture in his right scapula last season. Tetreault walked 10 and struck out nine over 21 innings in four starts for the big club.
