Fedde (5-9) took the loss Tuesday, surrendering six runs on nine hits and a walk over 2.2 innings as the Nationals were downed 10-6 by the A's. He struck out four.

EDGE Analysis

The right-hander dropped his fourth straight decision with his last win coming back on June 21, although Fedde has held the opposition to three runs or less in five of seven starts during that stretch. On the season, the 29-year-old carries a rough 5.29 ERA, 1.56 WHIP and 80:49 K:BB through 100.1 innings, but the rebuilding Nats don't have any better options for their rotation.

Fedde (5-8) took the loss Tuesday versus the Mariners. He allowed two runs on three hits and a walk while striking out six over five innings.

EDGE Analysis

Fedde missed a month with a shoulder injury, and he threw 81 pitches (52 strikes) in this outing. He was solid in his return, with the lone mistake on his line being a two-run home run by Mitch Haniger in the fourth inning. Through 97.2 innings this year, Fedde's surrendered 14 homers, and he's added a 4.88 ERA, 1.51 WHIP and 76:48 K:BB. The high walk rate is particularly troublesome, as is pitching for a team sitting in the basement of the National League. His next projected start is a favorable home matchup versus the Athletics next week.

Fedde (shoulder) was activated ahead of Tuesday's start against the Mariners.

EDGE Analysis

He will end up missing exactly a month with the shoulder issue. Fedde struck out four in four shutout innings in his lone rehab start, so he should be able to go deep enough to qualify for the win if he is pitching well.

Nationals manager Dave Martinez confirmed Fedde (shoulder) will be activated from the 15-day injured list to start Tuesday's game in Seattle, Jessica Camerato of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

To clear room for Fedde in the five-man rotation, the Nationals moved Cory Abbott to the bullpen ahead of Sunday's series finale in San Diego. Fedde, who has been on the shelf since July 25 with right shoulder inflammation, was cleared to rejoin the rotation after striking out four over four shutout innings in his rehab start Thursday with Triple-A Rochester. He tossed 63 pitches in that outing, so Fedde could be capped at somewhere between 70 and 85 pitches Tuesday.

Fedde (shoulder) could rejoin the Nationals rotation Tuesday against Seattle, Jesse Dougherty of The Washington Post reports.

EDGE Analysis

Fedde has been on the injured list since July 30 but completed four innings in a rehab start Wednesday. He tossed 63 pitches, so if he does return Tuesday, it would likely be on a pitch count. Cory Abbott could be bumped from the rotation upon Fedde's return, but manager Davey Martinez also noted the team may opt for a six-man rotation.

Fedde (shoulder) scattered three hits and one walk while striking out four across four scoreless innings Wednesday in his rehab start with Triple-A Rochester.

EDGE Analysis

According to Bobby Blanco of MASNSports.com, the Nationals wanted Fedde to cover 5-to-6 innings or 80 pitches in the rehab start, but the right-hander exited after 63 pitches on account of a rain delay. Despite not working as deep into the outing as the Nationals anticipated, Fedde could still be reinstated from the injured list early next week to make his next start with the big club. If that's the case, Fedde could face a restricted pitch count in his return to the big-league rotation.

Fedde (shoulder) will make a rehab start at Triple-A Rochester on Wednesday, Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Fedde threw approximately 40 pitches during a bullpen session last weekend, and he'll require at least one start in the minors prior to rejoining the Nationals' rotation. The right-hander has been on the injured list since July 30, and it's possible that he'll be cleared to return after just one rehab outing.

Fedde (shoulder) threw another bullpen session Saturday, Jessica Camerato of MLB.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

The side session consisted of roughly 40 pitches. When Fedde hit the IL, manager Dave Martinez suggested he wasn't too concerned about the injury. It seems Fedde, who sits with a 4.95 ERA and 1.54 WHIP this season, will end up missing more than 15 days, though perhaps he won't miss too much more than the minimum if he continues to progress in the right direction.

Fedde was placed on the 15-day injured list due to right shoulder inflammation Saturday, Matt Weyrich of NBC Sports Washington reports.

EDGE Analysis

Fedde was scratched from Saturday's scheduled start and will be forced to miss at least two weeks due to his shoulder injury. Paolo Espino will start Saturday against the Cardinals while Josiah Gray takes the mound during Sunday's series finale. While it's not yet clear whether Fedde will spend more than the minimum of 15 days on the IL, manager Dave Martinez said Saturday that he isn't too concerned about the right-hander's injury.

Fedde has been scratched from his scheduled start Saturday against the Cardinals for an unspecified reason, Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

The Nationals haven't yet given a reason for scratching Fedde, but Paolo Espino will be moved up a day in the rotation to start Saturday. It's not yet clear when Fedde will be able to make his next start.
