Adam Eaton Available Off Bench Saturday, Will Play Sunday
7 years agoWashington Nationals outfielder Adam Eaton (ankle) isn't starting on Saturday, but is available off the bench. He's expected to play on Sunday. Eaton has been recovering from shifting scar tissue in his ankle, a condition that forced his early exit from the game on Thursday. It isn't serious, but any problems with his body must be dealt with delicately since he missed most of 2017 with a torn ACL. While Brian Goodwin will serve as the team's substitute outfielder, Matt Reynolds has been called up to give the Nationals some bench depth. Enny Romero was designated for assignment to make room for Reynolds. Eaton was on a tear this past week. He'll be among the league leaders in runs scored if he can stay healthy. That's a big if, though, and owners could sell-high once Eaton gets back in his groove.
