Good evening DoD readers, and welcome to today’s District Daily. Get caught up on the latest Nats news and opinions with some great Washington Nationals articles from around the web below.
In today’s Daily, the Washington Post’s Chelsea Janes discusses the latest addition to Joe Ross’s pitching arsenal. As Janes writes in her article, Ross is working on a split-fingered fastball with some help from Nationals closer Jonathan Papelbon.
Papelbon learned the pitch from Curt Schilling when he was with the Red Sox. Ross, who also added a changeup to his repertoire last season, will likely start the season as the team’s fifth closer.
