Odalis Perez Signs With Nationals
12:45pm: It's official; the Nats have signed Perez to a minor league deal. He certainly picked the right team to attempt to bounce back to relevancy. He gets $850K if he makes the team.
12:23pm:Gordon Edes of the Boston Globe says it appears likely Perez will sign with the Nats. I imagine both offers were of the minor league variety.
TUESDAY, 9:02am:The Nats have an offer on the table for Perez, as do the Red Sox. You'd think he'd prefer the opportunity in Washington.
MONDAY, 7:49pm: In January, the Mets met with Odalis Perez. They scouted him in the Dominican Republic. The Mets later signed Tony Armas Jr. In February, Perez worked out for the Phillies, whose interest was characterized as "lukewarm." The Phils later signed Kris Benson. A third NL East team has entered the picture - MLB.com's Bill Ladson says the Nationals have serious interest in the southpaw.
Perez might have to settle for a minor league deal, maybe with incentives to reach $2-3MM. The 30 year-old pitched 137 innings of 5.57 ball for the Royals last year.
