Max Scherzer was scheduled to start this afternoon's game, but with the threat of rain again, he was held back so it's a bullpen day for the Washington Nationals as they take on Matt Harvey and the New York Mets at 12:10 PM in Port St. Lucie's Tradition Field.
Will the Washington Nationals get rained out yet again as they try to wrap up their Grapefruit League season this afternoon in the Spring finale with the New York Mets? It's a possibility.
A strong enough one that the Nationals decided to leave Max Scherzer behind in Viera to pitch in a minor league setting so that he could get his work in as he prepares for the season opener next week in Atlanta.
