Tom Cosgrove retired all six batters he faced for a save in a 7-3 game Monday against the Rockies.

The Nationals’ lead swelled from three runs to four in the top of the ninth, so the club just left Cosgrove in to collect his second career save. The other came on Sept. 27, 2023, when he pitched the 10th inning for the Padres. Cosgrove, who spent the first three months of the year in Triple-A, has pitched 3 2/3 scoreless innings since being acquired from the Astros earlier this month.

Astros reassigned RHP Amos Willingham and LHP Tom Cosgrove to minor league camp.

No real surprises among this duo, as both would have needed exceptionally strong springs to push for inclusion in the club’s Opening Day bullpen. Willingham was lit up during Grapefruit League play, posting a 10.50 ERA, 2.17 WHIP and a 10/4 K/BB ratio across six innings.

Astros signed LHP Tom Cosgrove to a minor league contract with an invitation to spring training.

Cosgrove, 29, excelled for the Padres in his major league debut in 2023, throwing 51 1/3 innings with a 1.75 ERA, but with his velocity in decline, he’s given up 20 runs in 18 2/3 innings in the majors in the two seasons since. He doesn’t figure to win a bullpen spot out of spring training.
