Erick Fedde: Headed to Korea
Rotowire Dec 20, 2022
Fedde agreed to a one-year, $1 million contract with the NC Dinos of the Korea Baseball Organization on Tuesday, Jee-ho Yoo of the Yonhap News Agency reports.
Fedde was given a $200,000 signing bonus and an $800,000 salary, reaching the one-year maximum salary for a first-year foreign player in the KBO. The 29-year-old was a bust as a 2014 first-round pick before being non-tendered by the Nationals earlier this offseason.

Erick Fedde: Non-tendered by Washington
Rotowire Nov 19, 2022
The Nationals declined to tender Fedde a contract for 2023, Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.com reports.
Washington kept trotting Fedde out there despite his struggles -- he had the second-worst ERA (5.81) among pitchers who threw at least 120 innings in the majors last season, trailing only teammate Patrick Corbin. Fedde will likely have to scratch and claw for a roster spot somewhere in spring training.
Nationals' Erick Fedde: Shelled for nine runs
Rotowire Oct 6, 2022
Fedde (6-13) took the loss against the Mets on Wednesday, allowing nine runs on nine hits and two walks over 2.1 innings while striking out one.
It was a short and disastrous afternoon for Fedde in the season finale, as he allowed three runs in all three frames in which he appeared. The nine runs allowed were a season high for the right-hander after he had not allowed more than four runs in any start since Aug 30. He closes 2022 with a 5.81 ERA, 1.63 WHIP and 94:58 K:BB over 127 innings.
Nationals' Erick Fedde: Allows four runs during loss
Rotowire Sep 25, 2022
Fedde (6-11) took the loss Saturday, allowing four runs on nine hits and one walk over 5.2 innings against the Marlins. He struck out four.
Fedde allowed a two-run single in the first inning followed by a solo homer from outfielder Bryan De La Cruz to lead off the fourth and an RBI double from Miguel Rojas in the sixth, one of three doubles surrendered by the righty. Fedde is going through a dreadful stretch in his last nine starts, recording a 7.42 ERA and 1.90 WHIP over 40 innings. Furthermore, the 29-year-old has pitched five innings or more in just four of those starts.
Nationals' Erick Fedde: Strikes out three batters
Fedde did not factor into the decision against Miami on Saturday, allowing three runs on seven hits while striking out three batters and walking none over four innings.
Fedde tossed 56 of 87 pitches for strikes in Saturday's contest, giving up three runs across four frames. This was his second game in a row in which Fedde was pulled before the fifth inning. He has completed the sixth inning only five times all year. In his last 21.2 innings, the righty has allowed 16 earned runs, giving him a 6.79 ERA since Aug. 23. He has a 5.29 ERA on the season.

Nationals' Erick Fedde: Another rough outing
Fedde (6-10) took the loss Saturday, allowing four runs on five hits and four walks over 3.2 innings against the Phillies. He struck out one.
Fedde allowed a two-run homer to outfielder Bryce Harper to tie the game with two outs in the third, and he later allowed an RBI double by Brandon Marsh. The righty has been dreadful in his last seven starts, turning in a 7.71 ERA and 1.95 WHIP over 30.1 innings. In addition, the 29-year-old has pitched five innings or more just three times during that span.
Nationals' Erick Fedde: Earns sixth win in quality start
Rotowire Sep 4, 2022
Fedde (6-9) earned the win Sunday, allowing one run on four hits and one walk over six innings against the Mets. He struck out two.
The only damage on the afternoon came in the second inning after Fedde allowed a walk, a single and a sacrifice fly to start the inning. Otherwise, he was very effective, holding the Mets to just five baserunners on his way to his fifth quality start and sixth win on the season. The effort lowered his ERA to 5.08, and he will look to keep the momentum going in his next start, which will likely come next weekend at Philadelphia.
Nationals' Erick Fedde: Early exit Tuesday
Rotowire Aug 31, 2022
Fedde (5-9) took the loss Tuesday, surrendering six runs on nine hits and a walk over 2.2 innings as the Nationals were downed 10-6 by the A's. He struck out four.
The right-hander dropped his fourth straight decision with his last win coming back on June 21, although Fedde has held the opposition to three runs or less in five of seven starts during that stretch. On the season, the 29-year-old carries a rough 5.29 ERA, 1.56 WHIP and 80:49 K:BB through 100.1 innings, but the rebuilding Nats don't have any better options for their rotation.
Nationals' Erick Fedde: Takes loss in return
Fedde (5-8) took the loss Tuesday versus the Mariners. He allowed two runs on three hits and a walk while striking out six over five innings.
Fedde missed a month with a shoulder injury, and he threw 81 pitches (52 strikes) in this outing. He was solid in his return, with the lone mistake on his line being a two-run home run by Mitch Haniger in the fourth inning. Through 97.2 innings this year, Fedde's surrendered 14 homers, and he's added a 4.88 ERA, 1.51 WHIP and 76:48 K:BB. The high walk rate is particularly troublesome, as is pitching for a team sitting in the basement of the National League. His next projected start is a favorable home matchup versus the Athletics next week.
Nationals' Erick Fedde: Activated, starting Tuesday
Fedde (shoulder) was activated ahead of Tuesday's start against the Mariners.
He will end up missing exactly a month with the shoulder issue. Fedde struck out four in four shutout innings in his lone rehab start, so he should be able to go deep enough to qualify for the win if he is pitching well.
Nationals' Erick Fedde: Rejoining rotation Tuesday
Nationals manager Dave Martinez confirmed Fedde (shoulder) will be activated from the 15-day injured list to start Tuesday's game in Seattle, Jessica Camerato of MLB.com reports.
To clear room for Fedde in the five-man rotation, the Nationals moved Cory Abbott to the bullpen ahead of Sunday's series finale in San Diego. Fedde, who has been on the shelf since July 25 with right shoulder inflammation, was cleared to rejoin the rotation after striking out four over four shutout innings in his rehab start Thursday with Triple-A Rochester. He tossed 63 pitches in that outing, so Fedde could be capped at somewhere between 70 and 85 pitches Tuesday.
Nationals' Erick Fedde: Could return Tuesday
Fedde (shoulder) could rejoin the Nationals' rotation Tuesday against Seattle, Jesse Dougherty of The Washington Post reports.
Fedde has been on the injured list since July 30 but completed four innings in a rehab start Wednesday. He tossed 63 pitches, so if he does return Tuesday, it would likely be on a pitch count. Cory Abbott could be bumped from the rotation upon Fedde's return, but manager Davey Martinez also noted the team may opt for a six-man rotation.
Nationals' Erick Fedde: Works four frames in rehab start
Fedde (shoulder) scattered three hits and one walk while striking out four across four scoreless innings Wednesday in his rehab start with Triple-A Rochester.
According to Bobby Blanco of MASNSports.com, the Nationals wanted Fedde to cover 5-to-6 innings or 80 pitches in the rehab start, but the right-hander exited after 63 pitches on account of a rain delay. Despite not working as deep into the outing as the Nationals anticipated, Fedde could still be reinstated from the injured list early next week to make his next start with the big club. If that's the case, Fedde could face a restricted pitch count in his return to the big-league rotation.
Nationals' Erick Fedde: Slated for rehab start
Fedde (shoulder) will make a rehab start at Triple-A Rochester on Wednesday, Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.com reports.
Fedde threw approximately 40 pitches during a bullpen session last weekend, and he'll require at least one start in the minors prior to rejoining the Nationals' rotation. The right-hander has been on the injured list since July 30, and it's possible that he'll be cleared to return after just one rehab outing.
Nationals' Erick Fedde: Completes another bullpen session
Rotowire Aug 6, 2022
Fedde (shoulder) threw another bullpen session Saturday, Jessica Camerato of MLB.com reports.
The side session consisted of roughly 40 pitches. When Fedde hit the IL, manager Dave Martinez suggested he wasn't too concerned about the injury. It seems Fedde, who sits with a 4.95 ERA and 1.54 WHIP this season, will end up missing more than 15 days, though perhaps he won't miss too much more than the minimum if he continues to progress in the right direction.
Nationals' Erick Fedde: Placed on 15-day IL
Rotowire Jul 30, 2022
Fedde was placed on the 15-day injured list due to right shoulder inflammation Saturday, Matt Weyrich of NBC Sports Washington reports.
Fedde was scratched from Saturday's scheduled start and will be forced to miss at least two weeks due to his shoulder injury. Paolo Espino will start Saturday against the Cardinals while Josiah Gray takes the mound during Sunday's series finale. While it's not yet clear whether Fedde will spend more than the minimum of 15 days on the IL, manager Dave Martinez said Saturday that he isn't too concerned about the right-hander's injury.
Nationals' Erick Fedde: Scratched from Saturday's start
Fedde has been scratched from his scheduled start Saturday against the Cardinals for an unspecified reason, Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.com reports.
The Nationals haven't yet given a reason for scratching Fedde, but Paolo Espino will be moved up a day in the rotation to start Saturday. It's not yet clear when Fedde will be able to make his next start.
Nationals' Erick Fedde: Yields three runs in no-decision
Fedde allowed three runs on seven hits and four walks with three strikeouts in 4.2 innings in a no-decision during Sunday's win over the Diamondbacks.
Fedde has allowed at least nine baserunners in each of his last three starts, pitching a combined 13 innings in that ineffective span. The Diamondbacks weren't all that efficient in cashing in their opportunities, and the Nationals' comeback win kept Fedde from taking a third consecutive loss. The right-hander now has a 4.95 ERA, 1.54 WHIP and 70:47 K:BB through 92.2 innings in 19 starts this year. He's projected for a home start versus the Cardinals next weekend.
