Washington Nationals’ skipper Davey Martinez called on Erick Fedde last Saturday when the scheduled starter, Stephen Strasburg wasn’t able to go.
Fedde, 27, made the roster in a bullpen role, but as he told reporters he’s gotten used to the different jobs he’s been asked to do in his time in the majors.
“If anything this is my normal,” Fedde joked. “Four years of this, something that happens when you’re on a team that has this many quality players and it’s just one of those things where I have to take my opportunities and run with them.
