Austin Voth earned the fifth spot in the rotation in Spring Training 1.0 and 2.0, but it hasn’t gone well for the 28-year-old right-hander in his first six starts of the 2020 campaign. And it’s gotten progressively worse, unfortunately, with the Washington Nationals’ 2013 5th Rd pick (0-3) with a 12.51 ERA and a .422/.507/.781 line against in his last four outings after he made two respectable five-inning starts his first two times out this season.
Voth talked after giving up six hits (two of them home runs) and five runs total in two innings on the mound agains the Red Sox in Boston’s Fenway Park last weekend, about the work he has been doing between starts to try to get things right and turn his season around before a move is made.
