The Washington Nationals are not planning on Stephen Strasburg pitching in the upcoming National League Divisional Series. Jon Heyman of FanRag Sports says they hope to have him available for the NL Championship Series, if they do advance.
As of now, the Nationals are expected to go with Max Scherzer in Game 1, likely against Clayton Kershaw of the Los Angeles Dodgers. Game 2 would see Tanner Roark. Gio Gonzalez potentially in Game 3 and Joe Ross in Game 4 if needed.
