Good evening DoD readers, and welcome to today’s District Daily! Check out some great Washington Nationals articles from around the web below.
In today’s Daily, the Washington Post’s Chelsea Janes discusses Denard Span‘s progress as he recovers from stiffness in his back. As Janes notes, Span received cortisone shots in his back last week and is feeling better.
Span landed on the 15-day disabled list on July 10 after dealing with recurring back spasms for a month. At first, it looked like the center fielder would be able to play through the back spasms, but after the ailment kept him out of several games, he and the team decided to place him on the disabled list to try to address the issue.
