Riley Adams News: Outrighted to Rochester

Written by RotoWire Staff

Published on January 28, 2026

Adams cleared waivers Wednesday and was sent outright to Triple-A Rochester.

The 29-year-old catcher was DFA'd by the Nationals last Thursday to create space on the 40-man roster for Gus Varland (undisclosed). Adams had the right to elect free agency after passing through waivers unclaimed, but he will instead accept his assignment to Rochester and is likely to remain there for the majority of 2026.
