Patrick Corbin Dealing With Back Spasms
2 years agoWashington Nationals left-hander Patrick Corbin (back) was pulled from his start early on Tuesday against the Atlanta Braves due to back spasms. He will give it a few days before seeing how he feels and if he can make his next scheduled start. The 33-year-old southpaw only threw 12 pitches and recorded two outs before hitting the showers against Atlanta. With the Nationals well out of contention and with nothing left to play for in the final couple weeks of the season, they won't rush Corbin back to the mound. It's been an extremely disappointing season for Corbin, as he's gone 6-18 with a rough 6.08 ERA (4.85 FIP), a 1.66 WHIP and a 125:46 K:BB in 148 innings over his 30 starts. He leads the league in hits allowed (200) and earned runs (100).
