    Alex Colome: Cut loose by Pale Hose

    The White Sox released Alex Colome on Thursday.Colome picked up 41 saves during his first stint with the White Sox between the 2019 and 2020 seasons, but his second go around in Chicago was much less successful. After inking a minor-league deal with the White Sox in April, Colome earned a call-up to the big club in early May but was booted off the 40-man roster after giving up four runs (two earned) across three innings out of the bullpen. Colome remained in the organization after clearing waivers and had spent the last two and a half months at Triple-A Charlotte, with whom he posted a 3.24 ERA and 1.60 WHIP over 33 appearances on the season. The 34-year-old right-hander probably pitched well enough to land a minor-league deal somewhere else, but his advanced age and lack of swing-and-miss stuff likely means he won't pitch any high-leverage innings if he resurfaces in the majors at any point over the final two months of the season.

    White Sox's Alex Colome: Receives minor-league deal

    Alex Colome signed a minor-league contract with the Chicago White Sox on Friday.It's a return to where he had some of his best seasons, as Colome was the White Sox' primary closer from 2019-20. He's fallen on hard times since then and will need to show something in the minors first, but the hope is Colome will supplement the team's relief depth while Liam Hendriks (illness) is unavailable.

    Alex Colome: Granted release

    Alex Colome was granted his release by the Nationals on Saturday, Andrew Golden of The Washington Post reports.For the second straight winter, Colome signed with a struggling team and looked to potentially have a path to saves. Last year, he saved just four games for the Rockies and finished with a 5.74 ERA, though this year things went even worse, as he failed to earn a roster spot and was subsequently let go. The 34-year-old has 159 career saves but might find it hard to add to that total this season.

    Nationals' Alex Colome: Sent to minor-league camp

    Alex Colome was assigned to minor-league camp on Saturday, Jessica Camerato of MLB.com reports.Colome could theoretically have earned save chances in Washington this season with the team open to using Kyle Finnegan in more of a fireman role, but instead, the veteran won't even earn a roster spot. He didn't help his case this spring, posting a 5.59 ERA, 1.97 WHIP and 7:7 K:BB in 9.2 innings.

    Nationals' Alex Colome: Controls deserts him Thursday

    Alex Colome walked three batters and struck out one in a scoreless inning of relief during Thursday's Grapefruit League game against the Mets.The high-leverage roles in the Washington Nationals' bullpen remain undecided beyond Kyle Finnegan, but Colome didn't do himself any favors in his quest to secure one with this performance. The veteran right-hander is coming off a season in which he posted a 5.74 ERA through 47 innings with the Rockies, and he's been no better at sea level this spring, giving up two homers with a 5:5 K:BB through 6.2 innings over seven appearances. Given that he's only on an NRI deal in camp, there's no guarantee Colome even makes the Opening Day roster.

    Nationals' Alex Colome: Might be saves option

    Alex Colome could see save chances if Kyle Finnegan gets shifted into a fireman role rather than being used as a traditional closer, Bobby Blanco of MASN reports.Finnegan still seems likely to see the majority of save chances for the Washington Nationals this season, but there could be saves up for grabs if the right-hander gets the call earlier in games in tight situations. Colome would be just one of many candidates who could benefit, with Hunter Harvey, Sean Doolittle (elbow), Carl Edwards and Mason Thompson also in the mix depending on matchups and performance. Colome has 159 career saves and has the most ninth-inning experience of anyone in the Nats' bullpen, and while his numbers in 2022 with the Rockies weren't pretty, the 34-year-old right-hander did record 17 saves for the Twins in 2021, albeit with a 4.15 ERA, 1.40 WHIP and weak 20.0 percent strikeout rate.

    Nationals' Alex Colome: Gets NRI deal from Nats

    Alex Colome signed a minor-league contract with the Washington Nationals on Friday and received an invite to major-league spring training, Jesse Dougherty of The Washington Post reports.The Nationals have had their eyes on Colome since 2019 when they attempted to trade for him ahead of the deadline. The right-hander has declined considerably since then, however, and holds a 4.82 ERA and 1.52 WHIP over the past two seasons. If the 34-year-old reliever can hold his own in spring training, he might crack a Nats bullpen with few proven arms, though he probably won't see much high-leverage usage.
