Robert Gsellman News
Free-agent right-hander Robert Gsellman signed a minor-league deal with the Washington Nationals on Wednesday. He'd make $900,000 if he's in the majors in 2024. Gsellman spent last year pitching in Japan, where he posted a 4.32 ERA and 1.52 WHIP in 139 2/3 innings pitched. In 2022 with the Chicago Cubs, he only pitched 15 1/3 innings at the major-league level and allowed 10 runs (eight earned) on 17 hits (two homers) while walking three and striking out nine. In parts of seven major-league seasons, Gsellman has a 4.60 ERA (4.30 FIP) and 1.39 WHIP with 15 saves, 126 walks and 289 strikeouts in 366 innings over 184 appearances (34 starts) for the Cubs and New York Mets. The 30-year-old will most likely begin the 2024 campaign at Triple-A Rochester and give Washington some minor-league relief depth to open the year.
The Chicago Cubs are agreeing to an undisclosed deal with free-agent right-hander Robert Gsellman on Thursday, according to a source. The Cubs have been busy on Thursday, also adding veteran infielder Jonathan Villar and left-handed pitcher Daniel Norris to major league deals. Gsellman spent his first six MLB seasons with the New York Mets, posting a 4.59 ERA and 1.40 WHIP with 14 saves in 176 appearances (34 starts) covering 350 2/3 innings. He had a 3.77 ERA and 1.19 WHIP with 17 strikeouts and seven walks in 28 2/3 innings (one start) while being limited with a lat injury. The 28-year-old is likely to serve in a middle-relief role if he's on the Cubs major league roster, making it highly unlikely he'll be fantasy relevant.
The New York Mets non-tendered reliever Robert Gsellman, right-hander Stephen Nogosek and outfielder Mark Payton on Tuesday, making them all free-agents. The 28-year-old Gsellman missed most of the 2021 season while rehabbing a torn right lat muscle. He had a 3.77 ERA in 28 2/3 innings and was more effective than he was in 2020, but he only struck out 17 batters and had an FIP of 4.29. Gsellman made $1.3 million last season and would have been due a modest raise through the arbitration process. The 13th-round pick in 2016 should be able to land another job in a bullpen with his mid-90s heater with some starting experience.
