Wander Suero Called Up, Austin Voth Sent Down
7 years agoWashington Nationals reliever Wander Suero has been called up from the team's Triple-A affiliate in Syracuse and Austin Voth has been sent down. The move provides a fresh bullpen arm for the Nats' upcoming series against the Pirates and allows Voth to stay on a starter's schedule. In 65 1/3 innings last season, Suero faced 267 batters, surrendering just three home runs with a 1.07 WHIP and 65 strikeouts. His first outing in the minors this year was terrible (three earned runs on five hits in one inning). But since then, he's given up one hit in three innings with two strikeouts and no walks. Voth was called up Sunday and never used. He could be in the mix if the team needs a fifth starter down the road. Neither pitcher is fantasy relevant for now.
