Nationals' Luis Torrens: Signs minors deal with Nats

Torrens signed a minor-league contract Thursday with the Nationals.

Torrens will join the roster at Triple-A Rochester. The 27-year-old catcher slashed .250/.318/.300 over 13 major-league games earlier this season with the Cubs before then spending less than a week in the Orioles organization. He's a career .227/.289/.352 hitter in the bigs.
