Honestly, I'd forgotten all about him! I see that he picked up where
he left off! Why start him again? Let him do some "mop -up" in the
BP to see what he can do instead of having him start & put the Nats at
a 5 run disadvantage by the end of the 1st inning!

The kids (pitching) have been doing O.K. considering......

I think he'll go back on it in a day or two. Yesterday he tapped his
chest and shoulder strangely and then hit the next batter. He was then
quickly yanked. IMO he's still hurt.

0-4 and hasn't been able to pitch out of the 5th inning yet this season.

He has a couple of amazing stats this season:

Before he got that first out yesterday, 16 consecutive batters had
reached base, and 12 consecutive batters had scored! His ERA was so
high going into the game, that it went down after that 4-run first
inning, because 3 of those runs were unearned due to his own error.
