Washington Nationals calling up Erick Fedde for MLB debut in place of Stephen Strasburg?
Multiple reports tonight say the Nationals will call top pitching prospect Erick Fedde up to make his MLB debut in place of Stephen Strasburg on Friday. According to reports tonight, the Washington Nationals will call top pitching prospect Erick Fedde up from Triple-A Syracuse to start in place of Stephen Strasburg Saturday against Colorado. Nats skipper Dusty Baker was asked earlier today about the possibility of Fedde filling in for the injured Strasburg, who dealt with a nerve impingement in his right forearm during what ended up being two-inning outing against the Arizona Diamondbacks this past Sunday.
