Washington Nationals need to get Joe Ross together

When Stephen Strasburg came off the paternity list last week, Washington optioned Matt Grace back to Triple-A Syracuse, keeping Jacob Turner on the Nationals’ roster after the 25-year-old started against the Colorado Rockies in Coors Field.

Turner went six innings against the Rockies, giving up six hits and three earned runs in an 8-4 loss.

The plan for Turner since he was sticking around and the rotation was full with Ross and Strasburg back?
