Impact Escobar played in Japan during the 2020 campaign but signed a minor-league deal with the Royals in early May. He appeared in 35 games for Triple-A Omaha this year and slashed .274/.311/.452 with five homers, 23 runs, 16 RBI and two stolen bases. The 34-year-old could join the Nationals' 26-man roster at some point in 2021.

Kyle Schwarber - Exits with injury Schwarber exited Friday's game against the Dodgers in the bottom of the second inning with an apparent right hamstring injury, Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.com reports.
Impact Schwarber hit a two-out single in the second inning, but he grabbed at his right hamstring after he hit first base and immediately left the game with a trainer. The 28-year-old wasn't able to put much weight on his right leg as he left the field, and he was replaced by Gerardo Parra when he exited the contest. The left fielder had been on a power surge recently with 16 homers in his last 21 games. Parra could see increased time in left field if Schwarber is forced to miss additional time.
