WASHINGTON -- When Nationals right-hander Joe Ross initially landed on the disabled list in July, he had no inclination that he would end up missing more than the next two months. And yet the right shoulder inflammation kept him out until late September, enough time to make three starts before his first career playoff start against the Dodgers.
That shoulder is back to normal, and after taking a few weeks off to let his body rest completely, Ross is back to working out on his usual offseason routine.
Ross said he could potentially do some tinkering with his mechanics and throwing program before Spring Training to get his arm prepared.
