The Nationals signed Sampson to a minor-league contract Tuesday.
Scouting Report
Owns a solid fastball with excellent sinking action and late movement, so he can induce a decent amount of groundball outs. Also throws a decent changeup and slider. Does not have dominant offerings, so he will always need to be pinpoint with his fastball command and overall control of his arsenal in order to survive in the big leagues.
Long Range Potential: Decent right-hander.
