Nationals released LHP Will Ohman.

Nationals signed LHP Will Ohman to a minor league contract with an invitation to spring training. Ohman, 35, posted an ugly 6.41 ERA over 32 appearances for the White Sox last season, but he's held left-handed batters to a .210/.294/.348 batting line during his career. The Nats have no left-handers that are a guarantee to make the Opening Day bullpen, so it's a good spot for the veteran southpaw.

Will Ohman has elected free agency. On the surface, Ohman struggled through his 26 2/3 innings with the White Sox in 2012, posting a horrifying 6.41 ERA. He did post a solid WHIP of 1.05 though, and a 13/5 K/BB ratio, and most of the ERA damage was due to allowing six home runs. He'll attempt to latch on elsewhere as a left-handed relief specialist.

White Sox released LHP Will Ohman. Ohman was designated for assignment by the Pale Hose at the end of June. The veteran southpaw still pretty effective against left-handed batters and should draw plenty of interest on the free agent market.

White Sox waived LHP Will Ohman. Ohman surrendered three earned runs in two innings of relief on Wednesday afternoon against the Twins, bumping his season ERA to 6.41. The veteran left-handed reliever should draw some interest on waivers.
