Loutos

Since debuting with the Cardinals in 2024, Loutos has given up 17 earned runs and struck out eight in 12 innings as a major leaguer. He’ll probably wind up back on waivers later this winter, but if not, he’ll battle for a bullpen spot in spring training.

Loutos was with the team for just two days this time around. He gave up one run on one hit over 2/3 of an inning during Sunday’s loss to the Brewers. He’ll continue to serve as extra bullpen depth for the Nats at the Triple-A level for the time being. The Nationals are expected to promote PJ Poulin on Monday to take the open roster spot.

Loutos is one of four new additions for the Nationals after their deadline dealings. The 26-year-old will operate in the middle innings for the remainder of 2025 — assuming he pitches well enough to stick on the roster, of course.

Loutos heads back to the minors to make room for Shinnosuke Ogasawara to come up and take the ball on Sunday against the Red Sox. The 26-year-old righty has made eight relief appearances this season for the Nationals.

Loutos was just sent down Thursday to make room for Andrew Chafin. He’s back now as a result of Trevor Williams’ elbow injury, though he might just stay until a fifth starter is needed next week. Loutos gave up eight runs — six earned — over 4 1/3 innings in his first stint with the Nationals.

Loutos has struggled in his limited action with a six earned runs allowed over 4 1/3 innings. The 26-year-old heads back to the International League with Andrew Chafin (hamstring) coming off the 15-day injured list.

The 26-year-old hurler was just claimed off of waivers from the Dodgers on Tuesday. He’ll get his first opportunity to work out of the Nationals’ bullpen with Andrew Chafin (hamstring) heading to the injured list. Loutos has registered a 15.00 ERA, 2.00 WHIP and a 2/2 K/BB ratio over three innings at the big league level this season.

Extra relief depth for a Nationals team that is probably going to need it. Loutos was DFA’d by the Dodgers after giving up five runs in three innings over two appearances last week. The former Cardinals prospect has a 5.02 ERA and a 186/80 K/BB in 170 1/3 career innings in Triple-A.

The 26-year-old right-hander has posted a troublesome 15.00 ERA, 2.00 WHIP and a 2/2 K/BB ratio across three innings in two appearances out of the Dodgers’ bullpen this season. It seems likely that he’ll pass through waivers unclaimed and continue to function as extra bullpen depth for the defending World Champions at Triple-A Oklahoma City.

Loutos provides Los Angeles with a fresh bullpen arm heading into Monday’s series opener against the Mets. The 26-year-old righty has made exactly one relief appearance this season in the big leagues. He was acquired from the Cardinals in a small trade back on May 1.
