David Dahl Opts Out Of Minor League Deal With Nationals

David Dahl has opted out of his Minor League contract with the Washington Nationals.

The Nationals could choose to select him onto the Major League roster to keep him, but a report indicates they'll let him head back onto the open market.

Dahl signed on with the Washington organization last month. He struggled over his 18 games with Triple-A Rochester. He hit .224/.304/.343 in 79 trips to the plate, striking out on 22 occasions (27.8% rate).
