Nationals claimed RHP Braxton Roxby off waivers from the Giants.

Roxby, 27, was one of a number of non-roster players the Giants had to turn to late in the year as they dealt with a glut of injuries, and he wound up allowing two runs over 5 1/3 innings during the final three weeks. He’s probably not going to stick on the Nationals’ 40-man all winter, but maybe he’ll clear waivers next time around.
