Nationals and Jorge López agree to $3 million, 1-year deal

The Washington Nationals and former All-Star pitcher Jorge López agreed to terms on a 1-year contract, the team announced Saturday. López, a 31-year-old right-hander from Puerto Rico, went 2-3 with a 2.89 ERA, 50 strikeouts and four saves in 52 relief appearances last season with the New York Mets and Chicago Cubs. The Cubs signed him in June.
