Yasmany Tomas: Released by Nationals

Tomas was released from his minor-league deal Saturday, Jesse Dougherty of The Washington Post reports.

Tomas joined the Nationals as a non-roster invitee back in November but went on to hit just .233/.281/.233 in 20 spring games. He'll look to latch on elsewhere but will likely be stuck with another minor-league contract, as he's appeared in just four major-league games in the last three seasons.
