Nationals' Clayton Beeter: Called upon in non-save situation
Beeter struck out one and walked two in a scoreless eighth inning during Thursday's 10-4 win over the Cubs.
The Nationals held an 8-4 lead when Beeter took the mound to face the bottom half of Chicago's batting order -- not exactly a high-leverage spot for the 2026 debut of a pitcher generally projected to lead the team in saves this season. Washington doesn't have any established options at the back of its bullpen, however, so as long as Beeter remains effective, he should be in the mix to protect close ninth-inning leads. The 27-year-old right-hander will need to display more control than he did Opening Day to stay in the saves picture, as he tossed just 12 of 24 pitches for strikes against the Cubs. Cole Henry and potentially Cionel Perez, who worked the ninth Thursday, could also get save chances while new manager Blake Butera sorts out his bullpen.

Nationals' Clayton Beeter: Missing bats this spring
Beeter gave up an unearned run on one hit while striking out three over two-thirds of an inning during Sunday's Grapefruit League game against the Cardinals.
A wild pitch cost Beeter an actual out on one of his Ks, but it was an error by minor-league shortstop Randal Diaz that brought home the run against him. The right-hander has yet to be charged with an earned run this spring, delivering a 9:2 K:BB over 4.1 innings, and he appears set for a high-leverage role in a Nationals bullpen that lacks established arms. Whether Beeter can separate himself from the pack and stake a strong claim to the ninth inning will depend on how much he can improve his control after walking 19 batters in his first 29 big-league innings over the last two seasons.

Nationals' Clayton Beeter: Fans three in spring game
Beeter struck out three batters and walked one during his lone inning of work in Tuesday's Grapefruit League win over the Marlins.
After being traded from the Bronx to Washington last season, Beeter turned in a 2.49 ERA and 1.02 WHIP to go with a 32:14 K:BB over 21.2 innings. He's followed up his impressive start with the Nats by allowing two runs (both unearned) across three frames in spring training, collecting five strikeouts in the process. The Nationals entered spring camp without a clear go-to choice for ninth-inning work, but the 27-year-old righty seems like a strong contender to open the season as the team's preferred closer based on his recent performance.

Nationals' Clayton Beeter: Picks up first save
Beeter earned the save in Sunday's 4-3 win over the Pirates, allowing a hit and a walk while striking out three in a scoreless ninth inning.
With Cole Henry (back) landing on the IL and Jose Ferrer presumably unavailable, the Nats turned to Beeter in the ninth inning Sunday, and he was able to work out of trouble en route to his first major-league save. Beeter has been excellent recently, holding opponents scoreless in his last 14 appearances (13.2 innings) while allowing just two hits in that span. Overall, the right-hander sports a 4.03 ERA with a 1.07 WHIP and 28 strikeouts through 22.1 innings this season.

Nationals' Clayton Beeter: Promoted Tuesday
The Nationals recalled Beeter from Triple-A Rochester on Tuesday.
The right-hander was acquired from the Yankees last week and is now receiving his first look with the Nationals. Beeter allowed six earned runs in two appearances with the Yankees this year, but he fared better at Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre with a 3.54 ERA across 20.1 innings, though he still had an ugly 1.64 WHIP.

Nationals' Clayton Beeter: Expected to be recalled
The Nationals will recall Beeter from Triple-A Rochester, Spencer Nusbaum of The Washington Post reports.
Acquired from the Yankees in the Amed Rosario trade, Beeter has had an uneven 2025 season. He's been rocked for six runs with a 1:4 K:BB over 3.2 innings at the big-league level and held a 3.70 ERA and 40:20 K:BB over 24.1 frames during his time at Triple-A. The Nationals have a lot of uncertainty in their bullpen right now, so Beeter could work his way into a high-leverage role if he's able to throw enough strikes.

Nationals' Clayton Beeter: Dealt to Nationals
Beeter was traded along with outfield prospect Browm Martinez from the Yankees to the Nationals on Saturday in exchange for Amed Rosario, Jack Curry of YES Network reports.
Beeter got into just two games with the Yankees this season, allowing six earned runs on five hits with a 1:4 K:BB over 3.2 innings. He was better with Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, posting a 3.54 ERA, 1.64 WHIP and 33:16 K:BB over 20.1 frames spanning 18 appearances. Beeter has worked exclusively in relief this season, but he was primarily a starter prior to this year. It's not yet clear if Washington intends to keep him in the bullpen or transition him back to a starting role.

Nationals' Clayton Beeter: Sent to Triple-A after trade
Washington optioned Beeter to Triple-A Rochester after acquiring him in a trade with the Yankees on Saturday, Andrew Golden of The Washington Post reports.
Though the Nationals have a roster spot available after utility player Amed Rosario was moved to the Yankees on Saturday in the trade for Beeter and outfield prospect Browm Martinez, the right-hander is going to begin his tenure with Washington in the minors. Infielder Jose Tena is expected to be called up to fill Rosario's roster spot, per Andrew Golden of The Washington Post.

The Yankees optioned Beeter to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Thursday.
Beeter is clearing out to make room for Rico Garcia, who was officially added to the roster after being claimed off waivers earlier this week. The 26-year-old Beeter made two appearances during his stint in the majors, getting tagged for six runs with a 1:4 K:BB over 3.2 innings.

Yankees' Clayton Beeter: Rejoins big club
The Yankees recalled Beeter from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Tuesday.

Yankees' Clayton Beeter: Immediately back to minors
Beeter was optioned to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Thursday, Chris Kirschner of The Athletic reports.
Beeter was called up for his 2025 debut with the Yankees on Wednesday, and he allowed three earned runs across 1.2 innings Thursday against Toronto. He'll now head back to the minors and should serve as depth for the big-league club the rest of the season.

Yankees' Clayton Beeter: Up with big club
The Yankees recalled Beeter from Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre on Wednesday.
Beeter has offered a mixed bag at Scranton/Wilkes-Barre after returning from a shoulder injury, posting a 1.02 ERA with 29 strikeouts over 17.2 innings but also issuing 14 walks. He has a chance to work his way into high-leverage spots for the Yankees, but Beeter is likely to be used earlier in games initially.

Yankees' Clayton Beeter: Activated and optioned
The Yankees activated Beeter (shoulder) from the 15-day injured list Friday and optioned him to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre.
Beeter is over his right shoulder impingement, but the Yankees have elected to keep him at Scranton-Wilkes-Barre -- where he had been on a rehab assignment -- for now. The righty has permitted four runs with a 13:7 K:BB over 8.2 rehab innings.

Yankees' Clayton Beeter: Begins rehab assignment
Beeter (shoulder) struck out all four batters he faced in his first rehab appearance with Single-A Tampa on Sunday.
It was a good start for Beeter, who should move up to Triple-A Scranton/Wilkes-Barre eventually before being activated from the 15-day injured list. Beeter did not make any spring training appearances, so it could be a relatively lengthy rehab assignment.
