WASHINGTON -- The Nationals have not decided when Stephen Strasburg will pitch in a Major League game. He is currently on the disabled list because of a left oblique strain.
Before making the decision, Washington wants to see Strasburg perform some towel drills. If things go according to plan, Strasburg could pitch Saturday against the Rockies.
"We have some options. His day falls on Saturday," manager Matt Williams said. "But he will go out and do towel drills … to make sure. So we will have a better idea after he is done with that. He felt OK coming out of the bullpen.
