As expected, the Nationals have made the next set of cuts today, the details of which are coming across in fits and starts. Bryce Harper will not be among them, according to Washington Post beat writer Adam Kilgore.
Most of the names you’ll see below are not unexpected, with the possible of exception of Adam Carr. I write “possible” because of the results — 1-0, 1 SV, 4IP 1H 0R 0BB 2K — fully understanding that decisions are not made solely on stats, but it’s difficult to reconcile the disconnect between the decision and the performance. All the names below are being assigned to Syracuse (Mock & Carr are technically being optioned).
Luis Atilano
Michael Aubrey
Kevin Barker
Adam Carr
Jeff Frazier
Carlos Maldonado
J.D. Martin
Garrett Mock
Jhonatan Solano
Jonathan Van Every
Josh Wilkie
UPDATE: Reliever Cla Meredith has been released outright.
