Washington Nationals Considering Six-Man Rotation
4 years agoThe Washington Nationals are considering the possibility of going with a six-man rotation when Stephen Strasburg is activated from the injured list, according to Jesse Dougherty of the Washington Post. Erick Fedde is starting for Washington on Sunday, which lines up with Strasburg's rehab start and allows for the possibility of Strasburg to take Fedde's spot in the rotation the next time out. Dougherty said it seems likely Fedde will move to the bullpen when Strasburg returns, but manager Dave Martinez is considering the possibility of moving to a six-man rotation to help limit workloads, provided that Fedde performs well on Sunday.
