      Career

      Irvin was then drafted by the Washington Nationals in the fourth round, with the 131st overall selection of the 2018 Major League Baseball Draft, and signed. In his first professional season, he recorded a 1.74 ERA across 11 games split between the rookie–level Gulf Coast League Nationals and Low–A Auburn Doubledays.

      On November 15, 2022, the Nationals added Irvin to their 40-man roster to protect him from the Rule 5 draft. Irvin was optioned to the Triple-A Rochester Red Wings to begin the 2023 season. In 5 starts, Irvin registered a 2–2 record and 5.64 ERA with 20 strikeouts in 22+1⁄3 innings pitched.
