The Washington Post’s Jesse Dougherty reports that Washington Nationals manager Dave Martinez said Stephen Strasburg hadn’t faced hitters yet.

A few injury updates from Dave Martinez this morning:

– Stephen Strasburg and Joe Ross aren’t facing hitters yet, with Ross nearing a bullpen.

– Ehire Adrianza won’t start baseball activities until he can run, which hasn’t happened yet.
