Washington Nationals: Hoping Jordan Zimmermann goes out on a high note

Jordan Zimmermann may well be at the end of the line. In fact, prior to getting called up by the Milwaukee Brewers recently, Zimmermann was contemplating retiring. His lone appearance over the weekend didn’t go well, with him surrendering five earned runs in 3.2 innings.

On the heels of a dreadful tenure with the Detroit Tigers, being subjected to signing a minor league contract this offseason, then not making the Brewers out of spring training, one has to wonder if the days are numbered for Zimmermann.
