Hip soreness puts Wang's season in jeopardy; Garcia possible call-up?
http://0rz.tw/5PajO

Right-hander Chien-Ming Wang has been removed from the Double-A Harrisburg
roster and remains on the disabled list. He has reportedly continued to have
issues with hip soreness, so his minor league injury rehabilitation
assignment has been halted.

He left his start four days ago after just 4 2/3 innings when the hip issue
returned. Now that he is no longer on the 30-day rehab clock, he can remain
on the disabled list. He has allowed 13 runs and 23 hits in his last three
rehab starts for Harrisburg.

One scenario would be to move him to the 60-day disabled list at that time
and promote Triple-A Syracuse right-hander Christian Garcia to the 40-man
roster so he can pitch for the Nationals in September.

Garcia has not allowed an earned run since June and is throwing 97 mph
fastballs with life. Garcia is 2-0 with a 0.79 ERA in the minors this season.

This likely closes a chapter with the Wang as a National this season after
some promising signs that he could return to the pitcher that had won 38
games in two seasons with the Yankees. He is a free agent after this season.

In spring training, Wang had a great showing, but hamstring and hip soreness
derailed his season, and he was never able to spot his pitches low in the
zone as he was known to do when successful. He became entirely too hittable,
and with the Nationals surging this season, did not get a chance to work out
his issues in the majors.
