Nationals' Scott Copeland: Strikes minors deal with Washington
Rotowire
Copeland agreed to a minor-league contract with the Nationals earlier this month, Matt Eddy of Baseball America reports.
The 31-year-old has six big-league appearances to his name, one of which came for the Mets in 2018. Copeland otherwise split time between Triple-A Las Vegas and Double-A Binghamton last season, logging a collective 3.43 ERA, 1.39 WHIP and 100 strikeouts over 126 frames. He'll likely be ticketed for one of the Nationals' high-minors affiliates at the end of spring training.

The Mets signed Copeland to a minor-league contract Wednesday, Anthony DiComo of MLB.com reports.

The 30-year-old Copeland spent the entire 2017 campaign at Triple-A New Orleans in the Miami organization, accruing a 4.97 ERA, 1.54 WHIP and 118:53 K:BB over 137.2 innings.

Blue Jays' Scott Copeland: Signs minor league contract
Rotowire
Copeland signed a minor league deal with the Blue Jays, Ben Nicholson-Smith of Sportsnet.ca reports.
Copeland made a handful of appearances with the Blue Jays in 2015, posting a 6.46 ERA and 1.69 WHIP over five appearances (three starts). He'll have an opportunity to earn a spot on the major league roster during spring training, but he's unlikely to earn enough opportunities at the major league level to become fantasy relevant.
