Strasburg's (neck) recent visit with a specialist didn't lead to anything concrete, but he's scheduled for another visit soon, Maria Torres of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Strasburg has still yet to throw since he was placed on the 10-day injured list June 2. It remains unclear when he's expected to do so, but some clarity could emerge following his next visit.

Manager Dave Martinez said Sunday that Strasburg (neck) is scheduled to meet with a specialist soon before the Nationals determine the next step in his recovery from nerve irritation, Matt Weyrich of NBC Sports Washington reports.

EDGE Analysis

Strasburg has yet to resume throwing since he was placed on the 10-day injured list June 2 with a neck strain, as the Nationals are waiting for his nerve irritation to subside before clearing him to play catch. The meeting with a specialist could shed more light on a potential timeline for Strasburg's return, but it's clear at this point that the Nationals are viewing him as week-to-week rather than day-to-day. Erick Fedde is expected to serve as Washington's No. 5 starter for the duration of Strasburg's absence.

Strasburg (neck) hasn't yet resumed throwing, Jesse Dougherty of The Washington Post reports.

EDGE Analysis

Strasburg has been on the 10-day injured list with a neck strain since June 2, but he's been limited to lower-body workouts during the first week of his recovery process. Manager Dave Martinez said Wednesday that he wants the right-hander's nerve irritation to subside before he resumes throwing. A better idea of Strasburg's return timetable could come into focus once he's cleared to throw.

Strasburg was placed on the 10-day injured list Wednesday with a neck strain, Matt Weyrich of NBC Sports Washington reports.

EDGE Analysis

The 32-year-old was pulled from Tuesday's start in Atlanta after 30 pitches due to tightness in his right trapezius muscle, and an MRI revealed a neck strain. Strasburg remains without an official timeline for return, but he'll likely spend more than the 10-day minimum on the shelf should he be shut down from throwing for more than a couple days. Speaking earlier Wednesday, manager Dave Martinez noted that the two Triple-A Rochester starters on the 40-man roster -- Rogelio Armenteros and Ben Braymer -- are candidates to make a spot start Sunday against the Phillies in place of Strasburg. However, Erick Fedde (illness), who is making a rehab start Thursday at High-A Wilmington, will likely fill any additional turns Strasburg might miss once he comes off the COVID-19 IL.

Manager Dave Martinez said Strasburg will undergo an MRI after exiting Tuesday's start in Atlanta with right trapezius tightness, Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

The right-hander showed decreased velocity and struggled with his command -- he threw only 14 of 30 pitches for strikes -- before being removed during the second inning of Tuesday's contest. It's yet another injury for Strasburg, who's already spent a month-plus on the injured list this season with shoulder inflammation.

Strasburg was removed from Tuesday's start against Atlanta with an apparent injury, Dan Kolko of MASN Sports reports.

EDGE Analysis

The 32-year-old was removed after being struck by a comebacker around his glove hand, though he had previously been visited by the athletic trainer and was showing decreased velocity. Strasburg was all over the place before being pulled and threw only 14 of 30 pitches for strikes. The right-hander's next turn through the rotation is in question, though the Nationals have yet to officially announce an injury.

Strasburg (1-2) was charged with the loss to the Reds on Thursday after allowing three runs on five hits over five innings. He struck out five and issued one walk.

EDGE Analysis

Making his second start back from a bout of shoulder inflammation, Strasburg pitched well -- just not well enough to beat Sonny Gray on this evening. He allowed a homer to Eugenio Suarez in the first inning and was completely BABIP'd in the fifth with an infield single, a single off the second-base bag and a double just inside the left-field foul line. Strasburg, who threw 87 pitches in this outing after tossing 72 pitches in his return, lines up for a road start in Atlanta early next week.

Strasburg (1-1) gave up one hit, four walks and zero runs while striking out four in 5.1 innings Friday against the Orioles en route to his first win of the season.

EDGE Analysis

His fastball was sitting in the low-90s and his control was a little off, but the Orioles couldn't do much against him in his first start since April 13. Strasburg only threw 72 pitches, and he will look to build on that in his next start, which projects to be Thursday at home against the Reds.

Strasburg (shoulder) was activated from the injured list as expected ahead of his scheduled start Friday against Baltimore, Maria Torres of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Strasburg made just two starts before being shut down with shoulder inflammation. He's ready to go after missing more than a month and should be able to handle close to a full workload, as he threw 75 pitches in a rehab start Sunday. Kyle McGowin was optioned in a corresponding move.

Strasburg (shoulder) will start Friday's game against the Orioles, Jesse Dougherty of The Washington Post reports.

EDGE Analysis

Strasburg has been on the injured list since April 18 due to right shoulder inflammation, but he's been ramping up his workload recently. He threw 75 pitches in a rehab start Sunday and tossed 55 pitches during an extended bullpen session Tuesday. Manager Dave Martinez said that Strasburg felt good after each throwing session, so the right-hander will be cleared to return for Friday's series opener against Baltimore. Strasburg made two starts prior to his injury and allowed eight runs (seven earned) on nine hits and seven walks while striking out 11 in 10 innings.
