Washington’s starter for the series finale with Milwaukee in D.C. was up in the air until after the second of three this weekend in Nationals Park.
“We’ll see how today goes,” manager Davey Martinez said before Saturday’s game. “Let’s get through today and then we’ll know more.”
Paolo Espino and Evan Lee seemed to be the two pitchers under consideration for the spot, as Martinez noted, but he wanted to see how the game with the Brewers played out.
“Like I said,” Martinez told reporters, “... we’ll get through today. Both Espino and Lee, if we need them today, they’re going to have to pitch today, and then we’re going to have to do something else.
