Washington Nationals news & notes: Davey Martinez on Victor Robles; Will Harris; Erick Fedde + more...

Victor Robles went on the 10-Day IL this past Tuesday, May 23rd (retroactive to 5/20) with a right ankle sprain, so he could potentially return this weekend, but the Nationals want their 24-year-old center field to test the ankle before he’s reinstated. The weather in the nation’s capital did not cooperate with their plans.

“Victor was supposed to run the bases today, due to the inclement weather, he’s not going to be able to do that, so hopefully tomorrow we can get him out there, run the bases, and see where he’s at,” manager Davey Martinez told reporters after announcing that the series opener with the Milwaukee Brewers was postponed by the same inclement weather.
