Any news? Starting to feel like no news is bad news at this point.

crickets.

Any news? Starting to feel like no news is bad news at this point.

At this point, I assume they amputated and will tell us in August

[Slateman]

He started tonight but they are in rain delay after two innings

[nobleisthyname]

Well that's seemingly good news at least.

[Section214]

He started tonight but they are in rain delay after two innings

That is terrific news after Twitter folk made it seem like his foot was cracked in half. Give him one more minor league start and then get him up here. I can't stand one more Patrick Corbin start, I can't take it.

great news!

[welch]

Corbin deserves to be a middle-inning reliever. Add Rutledge to Parker and Irvin. Add Wood in June. And then Cavalli. This season could be fun. 

[Slateman]

Not sure how Rutledge is an improvement

Not sure how Rutledge is an improvement

If he's ERA is 7.00, it's an improvement.

[IanRubbish]

2Ks, 5 walks, a home run, 9 earned runs, 62 pitches...in 2 innings tonight.  ERA up to 9.82.

Heck of a start.

Heck of a start. 

Summary: 6 IP, 3 hits, 0 runs, 1 walk, 6 Ks. Imagine if Rutledge is ready this season: Gore, Cavalli, Irvin, Parker, Rutledge. Plus Gray, maybe.

  Dude, where's my ring?

[Slateman]

Just convert him to relief

[Slateman]

4.2 innings, 2 runs, 4 walks, 5 strikeouts

Just not clicking for him. We actually have some starter depth. Convert him and see if a he becomes an effective reliever

Really struggling right now. Gave up 4R on 8H in 4 1/3 last night, though he did strike out 8.

[aspenbubba]

My guess is a brief call up and an eventual bust.

[Slateman]

My guess is a brief call up and an eventual bust.

He already had his brief call up ....?

[welch]

I think Rutledge will work his way back to where he was at the end of last season. Almost good enough to start for the Nats.

[imref]

lit up again tonight.

Pitched 7 innings, 2 hits, 1 ER, 2 walks, 3 strikeouts today.
