The Nationals also optioned 2019 first-round pick Jackson Rutledge to Rochester.

The journey to this point for Cavalli was interrupted for the better part of three years.

The one-year deal is pending a physical and includes a mutual option for 2027.

Their timelines were different, yet Cade Cavalli’s and Josiah Gray’s recoveries from Tommy John elbow reconstruction surgery were linked almost immediately.

“We’re figuring this all out together,” former first-round draft pick Dylan Crews said.

“There’s a lot of new things around here, but it’s exciting to learn it and see how it’s going to help us develop into better pitchers, better everything, and win a lot of ball games in the future,” left-hander Mitchell Parker said.

Wood impressed with an .825 OPS and 31 home runs. He competed in the Home Run Derby and launched balls that nearly left the stadium. He made fans flock to Nationals Park, eager to see this Olney native.

Before Wood got the invite to launch homers during the derby alongside some of the game’s biggest stars, he and his hitting coach Gerardo Caceres developed his swing in Gaithersburg.
