Stephen Strasburg, Joe Ross To Face Live Hitters Wednesday
3 years agoWashington Nationals starting pitchers Stephen Strasburg (neck, shoulder) and Joe Ross (elbow) are both slated to face live hitters for the first time on Wednesday. Both players threw bullpen sessions last week, with Strasburg tossing 37 pitches and Ross tossing 30. Ross is currently on the 60-day injured list and he isn't eligible to return until early June. Strasburg, meanwhile, could potentially make his season debut at some point later this month if he avoids setbacks. If Wednesday goes well for him, he'll likely be set out on a rehab assignment.
