Released by Nats, Nick Wells enjoys Indy ball

WALDORF, Maryland – Last year, Virginia native Nick Wells was at the highest level of minor league baseball.

Now the former pitcher in the Nationals’ farm system is looking to get back to an affiliated team – while at the same time having “a blast” with the Southern Maryland Blue Crabs here in Waldorf.

Wells was born in Alexandria and went to Battlefield High in Northern Virginia.

After playing in the minors with Toronto and Seattle, he was traded by the Mariners on May 4, 2019, to Washington for right-handed pitcher Austin Adams.

The Southern Maryland Blue Crabs of the independent Atlantic League announced Wednesday it has signed Battlefield HS graduate Nick Wells.
