Storen

[mattjb]

I love it when news like this comes out just after I bid too low on closers in free agency

Storen will visit Dr. James Andrews after experiencing soreness in his elbow Sunday, Adam Kilgore of the Washington Post reports.
Spin: The Nationals were hoping rest would cure Storen's ailment, so it's not good news that his elbow was sore after an extended period off. The Nationals believe Tommy John surgery won't be necessary, but they also think Storen may be dealing with chipped bone fragments, which would require some sort of surgical procedure. A full diagnosis won't be available until after Storen's visit to Dr. Andrews, but it looks like he could miss much more than the couple weeks the Nationals initially hoped he would miss. If Storen sits out for an extended period, the Nationals could turn to any of Tyler Clippard, Henry Rodriguez, or Brad Lidge in a save situation, though one of them would likely get a chance to secure the job.

You have to wonder what is up with the Washington Nationals and their young pitchers needing TJ surgery, if it indeed happens.

Don't think he's in too much danger for needing Tommy John, but any time you have to go see Doctor Andy, you are on the wrong side of trouble, heading towards disaster. I thought I had decent buy on him on a pair of teams...maybe not. Now he's just like 50% of the other preseason fantasy closer situations, lol.
