Padres' Carl Edwards: Back with San Diego on MiLB deal
The Padres re-signed Edwards to a minor-league contact Monday.
Edwards elected free agency after being outrighted off the Padres' 40-man roster earlier this month, but he's ultimately returned on a new deal. The righty failed to retire a batter in his lone appearance for San Diego and holds a 1.85 ERA and 1.45 WHIP across 24.1 innings with Triple-A El Paso this season.

Carl Edwards: Becomes free agent
Edwards elected free agency Wednesday.
Edwards was scrubbed from the Padres' 40-man roster after just one appearance and has decided to look for a job in a new organization rather than accepting an outright assignment. The righty was used as a starter at Triple-A El Paso but is likely to shift back to a relief role at his next stop.

Padres' Carl Edwards: DFA'd by San Diego
The Padres designated Edwards for assignment Monday.
The move makes room on the 40-man roster for the reinstatement of right-hander Joe Musgrove (elbow) from the 60-day injured list. Edwards was called up from Triple-A El Paso on Thursday, and in his lone outing against the Pirates that same day, he allowed two walks and one hit without recording an out. He has a 1.85 ERA and 1.45 WHIP across 24.1 innings in El Paso this season.

Padres' Carl Edwards: Gets call to big leagues
The Padres selected Edwards' contract from Triple-A El Paso on Thursday.
Edwards has worked exclusively as a reliever over parts of nine seasons in the big leagues, but he's been operating as a starter since catching on with the Padres in July on a minor-league deal. Over his four starts with El Paso, Edwards compiled a 4.76 ERA, 1.82 WHIP and 18:12 K:BB in 17 innings. Though he could get the chance to make his first MLB start later on in the campaign if injuries test the Padres' rotation depth, Edwards is expected to serve as a long-relief option during his first stint in the majors of 2024.

Padres' Carl Edwards: Latches on with San Diego
The Padres signed Edwards to a minor-league contract Thursday.
Edwards had been with Triple-A Iowa in the Cubs organization before being released last month. Given that he posted a 1.85 ERA over 24.1 innings (albeit with 15 walks), it could have been an opt-out situation. Edwards has already made one appearance with the Padres' Arizona Complex League affiliate, striking out four over 2.1 perfect frames. He should soon be assigned to Triple-A El Paso, where he will provide veteran relief depth.

Cubs' Carl Edwards: Back with Cubs
Edwards signed a minor-league contract with the Cubs on Thursday, per the MLB transaction log.
Edwards returned to the Cubs on an NRI deal in January, but he opted out of that contract March 23. He'll rejoin Chicago and start out with Triple-A Iowa. As a member of the Nationals last season, Edwards posted a 3.69 ERA, 1.52 WHIP and 24:17 K:BB over 31.2 innings.

Carl Edwards: Let go by Cubs
The Cubs released Edwards on Saturday, Andy Martinez of Marquee Sports Network reports.
Manager Craig Counsell confirmed Saturday that Edwards opted out of his minor-league contract. He gave up one earned run on two hits and three walks while striking out six over 6.2 innings in spring training. Edwards could latch on with a team looking for veteran bullpen depth.

Cubs' Carl Edwards: Pitching well this spring
Edwards, who tossed a scoreless inning of relief with a strikeout in Saturday's Cactus League game against the Rockies, has a 0.00 ERA across four spring appearances.
Edwards last pitched for the Cubs in 2019, and he was a valuable member of the bullpen for the 2016 World Series winning squad. The righty has bounced around a bit in recent years, but he has a chance to settle into a middle-relief spot with Chicago in 2024. Edwards likely won't have a ton of fantasy value in that role, however.

Cubs' Carl Edwards: Returns to Cubs as NRI
Edward signed a minor-league contract with the Cubs on Saturday that includes an invitation to spring training, Robert Murray of FanSided.com reports.
It's a return to where Edwards first reached the big leagues and had his most successful seasons. Edwards posted a 3.69 ERA and 24:17 K:BB over 31.2 frames with the Nationals in 2023. He missed the last three months of the season with a shoulder issue but presumably will be healthy heading into camp.

Nationals' Carl Edwards: Moved to 60-day IL
The Nationals transferred Edwards (shoulder) from the 15-day injured list to the 60-day IL on Monday.
Edwards had been on the 15-day IL since June 21, so his move to the 60-day IL won't affect his timeline for a return but will open up a spot on the 40-man roster for catcher Drew Millas, whose contract was selected from Triple-A Rochester. Though Edwards began a rehab assignment two weeks ago, he made three appearances before suffering a setback with his right shoulder. He's since been diagnosed with a stress fracture, and it's unclear if he'll be able to pitch again at any point in 2023.

Nationals' Carl Edwards: Out with stress fracture
Edwards (shoulder) was shut down indefinitely Wednesday after being diagnosed with a stress fracture in his right scapula, Andrew Golden of The Washington Post reports.
The right-hander was already on the shelf with shoulder inflammation, and he apparently didn't feel right after his minor-league rehab outing over the weekend. It's unclear how long Edwards will be shut down from throwing, but the injury could end his campaign if he's unable to get back to throwing within the next couple weeks.

Nationals' Carl Edwards: Begins rehab assignment
Edwards (shoulder) started a rehab assignment with the Nationals' Florida Complex League team Monday.
Edwards' first appearance with the FCL Nationals didn't go well, as he allowed three runs while recording just two outs. The veteran reliever has been sidelined since late June with right shoulder inflammation, so he figures to need a few more outings before rejoining the big club.

Nationals' Carl Edwards: Set for simulated appearance
Edwards (shoulder) is slated for a simulated appearance Friday, Andrew Golden of The Washington Post reports.
That might be the final step before Edwards is cleared to head out on a minor-league rehab assignment. The 31-year-old reliever has been sidelined since June 21 due to right shoulder inflammation.

Nationals' Carl Edwards: Resumes throwing
Edwards (shoulder) resumed throwing earlier this week, Bobby Blanco of MASNSports.com reports.
Edwards underwent an MRI last Wednesday, shortly after landing on the injured list, and it confirmed the initial diagnosis of right shoulder inflammation. If all goes well with his side work, he might be an option again for the Nationals' bullpen coming out of the All-Star break.

Nationals' Carl Edwards: Sent for MRI on shoulder
Edwards (shoulder) was sent for an MRI on his right shoulder Wednesday, Bobby Blanco of MASNSports.com reports.
Edwards landed on the 15-day injured list Wednesday afternoon with a diagnosis of right shoulder inflammation, but the imaging scans will provide a clearer overall scope of the issue. The 31-year-old had been shaping up as a strong trade candidate for the Nationals with a 3.69 ERA through 31.2 innings of setup duty. Maybe he can return sometime in July, ahead of the Aug. 1 trade deadline.

Nationals' Carl Edwards: Having shoulder checked out
Edwards is having his right shoulder checked before Wednesday's game versus the Cardinals, Bobby Blanco of MASNSports.com reports.
The Nationals have Joe La Sorsa with the team in Washington in case they need to place Edwards on the injured list. The right-hander has appeared in 32 games with the Nationals with a 3.69 ERA and 1.52 WHIP over 31.2 innings despite a lackluster 24:17 K:BB.

Nationals' Carl Edwards: Lands on IL
The Nationals placed Edwards on the 15-day injured list Wednesday with right shoulder inflammation, Andrew Golden of The Washington Post reports.
Washington opted to shut Edwards down after he experienced discomfort in his shoulder coming out of his most recent relief appearance in Monday's 8-6 loss to St. Louis. Though his initial diagnosis of inflammation rather than a shoulder sprain or strain bodes well for a speedy recovery, the Nationals aren't putting an official timeline on Edwards' return from the IL. The 31-year-old has been a key setup option this season, nabbing 13 holds, two saves and one win while accruing a 3.69 ERA over 32 appearances.

Nationals' Carl Edwards: Secures second save
Edwards picked up a save Thursday against the Astros, striking out one batter in a perfect inning.
Hunter Harvey got the first stab at a save for Washington in the ninth inning, but he couldn't protect a 1-0 lead. After the Nationals scored three times in the top of the 10th, Edwards got the call, and he retired the side on 12 pitches (10 strikes). The save was his first since April 8, but with Kyle Finnegan pitching inconsistently of late and Harvey blowing the opportunity Thursday, Edwards could emerge as a more frequent closing option for manager Dave Martinez.

Nationals' Carl Edwards: Rings up 13th hold
Edwards gave up a hit in a scoreless seventh inning to record his 13th hold of the season in Friday's loss to Atlanta.
The veteran reliever has matched his hold total from 2022 in less than half the appearances, but Edwards isn't exactly dominating. He's been scored upon in three of his last six games, and his 3.38 ERA on the season doesn't match his shaky 1.50 WHIP or mediocre 21:14 K:BB through 26.2 innings. The Nationals don't have many better options for high-leverage work, however, so Edwards figures to remain in a setup role barring a total meltdown.
