The Washington Nationals have reportedly signed veteran reliever Lucas Sims, and this move has sparked some intriguing possibilities for the team's bullpen. With a mixed track record, Sims brings a high-spin arsenal that could either be a game-changer or just another depth piece.

What do you think? Can the Nats coaching staff unlock Sims' potential and turn him into a reliable late-inning option? His impressive velocity increase and high strikeout rates suggest he has the tools to succeed, but can he overcome his command issues?

Let’s not forget that many relievers have found their stride in their 30s. Could this be the year Sims breaks out? Or will he continue to struggle with walks and inconsistency?

Additionally, with the competition heating up for roster spots, how do you see Sims fitting into the bullpen mix? Will he be a key player in the Nats' quest for a stronger season, or just another name on the roster?
