Washington Nationals: Signing Tony Sipp is a Great Move

After the release of Sammy Solis last weekend, there were many questions about if the Washington Nationals had enough quality left-handed arms in their bullpen to be successful. On Wednesday morning Washington erased that doubt singing 35-year-old veteran left-hander Tony Sipp to the roster.

Before the Sipp signing, it seemed that Washington was going to go with lefties Matt Grace and Vidal Nuno in their bullpen. Although both of them did have very successful 2018 campaigns, neither is as quality of a reliever as Sipp is especially at getting left-handers out.
