Back Soon:

• Xavier Nady: 15 day DL with wrist soreness.  Played in rehab game July 8.
• With Nady returning decisions have to be made about Moore's,or possibly another bench player's, place on the team.
• Drew Storen: 60 day DL with elbow bone chip.  Played in rehab game July 9.
• What will happen to T-clip and Burnett in the pen?  Storen will most likely slide into the set-up roll.

• After undergoing surgery on May 28, soreness is expected.  Ahead of schedule to return.

• Despite struggles, Nats need Wang and Lannan in top form with a Strasburg shutdown looming.
