January 18, 2021 8:16 PM : Lester signed a one-year contract with Washington on Monday, Jeff Passan of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Lester became a free agent following the conclusion of the 2020 campaign after spending the last six seasons with Chicago. It's unclear as to how many seasons the 37-year-old southpaw has left in the tank, but he figures to slot in near the back end of Washington's starting rotation behind Max Scherzer, Stephen Strasburg and Patrick Corbin.
