Nationals Injury News: Jarlin Susana update, Gray and Ruiz starting rehab assignments
"The Washington Nationals will get ready to square off against the Chicago Cubs on Sunday, and have a chance to take a series from a very solid team. After getting blown out in the series opener due to the continued struggles of starting pitcher Jake Irvin on Friday, the team bounced back in a big way on Saturday. Brad Lord had a very nice outing,"
"First of all, righty starter and 2024 All-Star Josiah Gray will make a rehab start for High-A Wilmington today, and will be on a strict limit of either 2 innings pitched or 35 pitches, whichever comes first. He has yet to appear this season since recovering from Tommy John Surgery, and it would be very encouraging to see if he can meet his goal of getting back on a big league mound before the end of the 2025 season."
The Washington Nationals rebounded from a blowout loss to beat the Chicago Cubs 2-1, powered by Brad Lord's strong outing and Daylen Lile's fourth homer. Rookie Andrew Alvarez will make his second career start on Sunday after an encouraging MLB debut. Right-hander and 2024 All-Star Josiah Gray will make a rehab start for High-A Wilmington with a strict limit of two innings or 35 pitches as he continues recovery from Tommy John surgery and aims to return before the end of 2025. Top prospect Jarlin Susana was removed from a start with an arm injury; MRI revealed a right lat strain that may end his season.
