    Sánchez and Suzuki Reunited: Aníbal Sánchez talked after signing a 2-year/$19M deal with the Washington Nationals in late December about the impact catcher Kurt Suzuki (who signed a 2-year/$10M deal with the Nationals back in November) had on him in what was a bounce-back season in Atlanta for the soon-to-turn 35-year-old starter in 2018.

    Sánchez had floundered in the previous three seasons (posting a 5.67 ERA in 88 games and 68 starts over between 2015-17), but with the Braves he put up a 2.83 ERA, a 3.62 FIP, 42 walks (2.77 BB/9), and 135 Ks (8.89 K/9) in 136 2⁄3 innings on the mound, with a .211/.278/.359 line against in 133 2⁄3 IP as a starter.
