Stuck with one-pitch loss Henry (0-1) took the loss Tuesday against the Mets, giving up an unearned run on one hit without retiring a batter.

Impact Taking the mound in the bottom of the 10th inning with the score tied 4-4, Henry's first pitch was laced into right field by Jeff McNeil to bring home the phantom runner from second base. Henry has emerged as a reliable relief option for the Nationals this season, posting a 2.31 ERA, 1.16 WHIP and 25:13 K:BB through his first 23.1 big-league innings, but he remains on the fringes of the team's high-leverage crew -- he has zero wins or saves and only two holds in 22 appearances.

Impressive start to MLB career Henry walked one and struck out four over two scoreless, no-hit relief innings in Thursday's loss to the Orioles.

Impact The 25-year-old right-hander has had an injury-marred pro career since being selected in the second round of the 2020 First-Year Player Draft, but Henry has looked good so far in a relief role with the Nationals. Through four appearances, he has yet to allow a run while posting a 0.64 WHIP and 8:1 K:BB. Washington's bullpen remains unsettled behind closer Kyle Finnegan, so Henry has a clear path to a high-leverage spot if he can keep stacking zeros -- he entered Thursday's contest in the eighth inning with the Nats down by a run.

Fans two in major-league debut Henry allowed one hit while striking out two in a scoreless eighth inning during Sunday's 11-4 loss to the Marlins.

Impact Henry was recalled from Triple-A Rochester on Sunday after Orlando Ribalta (biceps) was placed on the 15-day injured list. Henry got the call in the eighth frame for his major-league debut, striking out two while tossing 14 pitches (11 strikes) without being tagged for a run despite giving up an RBI single to Griffin Conine. Henry spent most of his minor-league career as a starter, but he shifted to a bullpen role this season and could be deployed as a long man for Washington.

Officially recalled from Triple-A The Nationals recalled Henry from Triple-A Rochester on Sunday.

Impact Washington placed reliever Orlando Ribalta (biceps) on the 15-day injured list. Henry will be available out of Washington's bullpen and could make his major-league debut as soon as Sunday's game against Miami. A 2020 second-round draft pick, Henry had spent most of his minor-league career as a starter before shifting to the bullpen this season and tossing a pair of scoreless innings for Rochester prior to his call-up.

Set to join big club The Nationals are expected to call up Henry from Triple-A Rochester, Andrew Golden of The Washington Post reports.

Impact Henry was able to participate in spring training after missing the second half of the 2024 season due to a lat injury. He transitioned to the bullpen for the 2025 campaign and has allowed one hit and three walks while striking out four across two scoreless innings in Triple-A. Once called up, Henry will have the opportunity to make his major-league debut out of the Nationals' bullpen, possibly as soon as Sunday's series finale against the Marlins.

Set to join big club The Nationals are expected to call up Henry from Triple-A Rochester on Sunday, Andrew Golden of The Washington Post reports.

Impact After missing much of the 2024 season due to a lat strain, Henry was medically cleared in advance of spring training and transitioned to a relief role as the Nationals looked to keep the oft-injured hurler healthy. He's now on the cusp of making his big-league debut after he tossed a pair of scoreless innings for Rochester while striking out four and giving up one hit and three walks. Expect Henry to be deployed in middle relief or as a long man out of the bullpen for Washington.

Sent to Triple-A The Nationals optioned Henry to Triple-A Rochester on Friday.

Impact The right-hander missed the entire second half of the 2024 campaign due to a lat injury and has transitioned to long relief for 2025. Henry made five starts for Double-A Harrisburg last year prior to the injury and had ad 3.95 ERA, 1.52 WHIP and 13:9 K:BB across 13.2 innings.

MARCH 7 • ROTOWIRE

Healthy for spring training Henry (lat) has made two Grapefruit League appearances this spring, tossing three scoreless innings and scattering three hits and no walks while striking out seven.

Impact The 25-year-old righty didn't pitch in the minors after June 26 last season due to a lat strain. Henry has worked as a starter for most of his minor-league career, but he told Andrew Golden of The Washington Post that he'll be making a move to long relief in 2025 as the Nationals aim to keep him healthy. Henry possesses a spot on the Nationals' 40-man roster but is most likely to open the campaign at Triple-A Rochester or Double-A Harrisburg, despite his strong showing so far during spring training.

Activated off minor-league IL Henry (shoulder) was activated from the minor-league injured list Tuesday, Bobby Blanco of MASNSports.com reports.

Impact Henry will join the starting rotation at Double-A Harrisburg after completing his rehabilitation from August 2022 thoracic outlet syndrome surgery. The 23-year-old did a four-start rehab run with Low-A Fredericksburg and High-A Wilmington and posted an encouraging 1.20 ERA and 16:3 K:BB over 15 innings. He should eventually rise back to Triple-A Rochester.

Level jump on rehab Henry (shoulder) had his rehab assignment transferred Tuesday to High-A Wilmington, Bobby Blanco of MASNSports.com reports.

Impact Henry racked up 11 strikeouts over seven scoreless innings during his two-start stay with Single-A Fredericksburg, the latest of those outings coming Sunday. His third rehab start, and first with Wilmington, lines up for this weekend. The talented 23-year-old is on the road back from thoracic outlet surgery and should eventually settle into the regular rotation at Triple-A Rochester.

MAY 23, 2023 • ROTOWIRE

Successful first rehab start Henry (shoulder) struck out five over three scoreless innings in his first rehab start for Single-A Fredericksburg on Tuesday.

Impact The 23-year-old righty has success under his belt at Double-A in 2022 and reached as high as Triple-A, so he should be expected to carve up a Single-A lineup. Nonetheless, thoracic outlet syndrome can ruin careers, so it's encouraging that his recovery has gone well thus far. He should head to the Triple-A Rochester rotation once he completes his rehab assignment in a week or two.
