Guerra cleared waivers Tuesday and opted for free agency, Jesse Dougherty of The Washington Post reports.

EDGE Analysis

The veteran righty enters the open market after being designated for assignment Sunday. His 16.50 ERA in six big-league innings this season is alarming, but Guerra was an effective, middle-inning reliever as recently as 2020 and could latch on with a team in need of veteran bullpen depth.

The Nationals designated Guerra for assignment Sunday, Jesse Dougherty of The Washington Post reports.

EDGE Analysis

Guerra's latest stint with the Nationals is over after he posted a 16.50 ERA and 2.50 WHIP in six innings of relief work this month. Despite being an experienced veteran arm, he's unlikely to attract much attention on waivers given his terrible results of late. Austin Voth (COVID-19) was activated from the injured list in a corresponding move Sunday.

Guerra was recalled from Triple-A Rochester on Tuesday, Dan Kolko of MASN Sports reports.

EDGE Analysis

Guerra has spent time in the big leagues across 10 previous seasons, but this will mark the veteran right-hander's first trip to the majors in 2021. Guerra most recently posted a 4.02 ERA across 15.2 innings with Washington during the shortened 2020 campaign. With former closer Brad Hand recently being traded to Toronto, and the Nationals still dealing with other injuries in their bullpen, the possibility of Guerra receiving some high-leverage innings in the future isn't out of the question.

Guerra was reassigned to minor-league camp Saturday, Jesse Dougherty of The Washington Post reports.

EDGE Analysis

Guerra made six relief appearances this spring but was unable to break camp with the team after he posted a 9.00 ERA and 1.83 WHIP in six innings. He'll likely begin the season with Triple-A Rochester but should be one of the top options to fill in if the Nationals' bullpen faces injuries.

Guerra (hamstring) threw a bullpen session Friday, Jesse Dougherty of The Washington Post reports.

EDGE Analysis

Guerra missed the final month of last season with a hamstring strain. He faced a slight delay to start camp this year due to the birth of his second child, but he's since arrived and is going through a normal throwing progression, so the hamstring issue doesn't seem to be lingering.

Guerra (hamstring/personal) cleared COVID-19 intake testing and joined the Nationals at spring training Wednesday, Jesse Dougherty of The Washington Post reports.

EDGE Analysis

Guerra was absent from the first several days of camp due to the birth of his second child, but he's joining his teammates for workouts Wednesday after clearing intake testing. It's unclear whether he's still dealing with his right hamstring issue that forced him to miss the final month of the 2020 season, but he'll now compete for a bullpen role this spring.

Guerra (hamstring) isn't yet at spring training due to the birth of his second child, Jesse Dougherty of The Washington Post reports.

EDGE Analysis

Guerra has remained in Arizona for the first several days of camp, but he's expected to join the team in West Palm Beach on Monday. The right-hander missed the final month of the 2020 season due to a left hamstring strain, and it's not yet clear whether he's fully healthy heading into spring training. Prior to his injury, Guerra made 14 relief appearances for Washington last year, posting a 4.02 ERA and 1.66 WHIP over 15.2 innings.

Guerra (hamstring) returned to the Nationals as a non-roster invitee Monday, Jesse Dougherty of The Washington Post reports.

EDGE Analysis

The 35-year-old threw 15.2 innings last season before his campaign was cut short by a hamstring strain. It's unclear whether or not the issue will carry over into spring training. Guerra owns a 3.73 ERA in 296.2 career innings of relief, though his 4.84 mark over the last three seasons is considerably less impressive.

Guerra (hamstring) cleared waivers Monday and elected free agency, Jessica Camerato of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

The veteran exercised his right to refuse an outright assignment to the minors and will try his luck on the open market instead. Whether or not the 34-year-old's 4.84 ERA over the last three seasons is enough to earn him a major-league deal this winter remains to be seen. His decent 4.02 ERA in 15.2 innings this season, a campaign which was cut short by a hamstring strain, came with a 1.66 WHIP.

Guerra was placed on the 10-day injured list Wednesday with a left hamstring strain, Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

The 34-year-old sustained the injury during Tuesday's contest as he delivered 14 of his 30 pitches for strikes over 1.2 scoreless innings. Guerra will be eligible to be activated Sept. 12, but it's unclear when he's expected to return from the injured list.
