The Nationals announce that they are shutting down ace pitcher Stephen StrasburgÂ
The Nationals announce that they are shutting down ace pitcher Stephen Strasburg in order to limit his innings on the mound in his first full season since undergoing Tommy John surgery. While other teams have taken similar decisions in the past, it is the first time a team involved in a pennant race has deliberately taken one of its top pitchers out of action of its own volition. Strasburg is 15-6, 3.16, with 197 strikeouts in 159 1/3 innings. His absence will be sorely felt when the Nats drop a five-game NLDS series to the Cardinals next month, in large part because of a lack of pitching depth.

This is not college any more. Youâre not on scholarship. Youâre being paid to do the job and guys depend on you, and I think itâs unfortunate that the Nationals and the team are in a situation here where this kid now, he feels any kind of arm pain, heâs gonna call you out?⊠You give these guys (todayâs players) $15 million bucks, please. Get your butt out there and play every fifth day.â â ROB DIBBLE, comments as a Sirius XM Radio show host
