Wire Taps: Fernando Rodney helping Wander Suero; Austin Voth will get Tuesday start; Maikel Franco walks off Nationals...

The bad news: the Nats lost. The good news: it almost felt surprising at this point!

Here’s the beat from Baltimore:

Rodney helping Suero gain confidence in changeup, move cutter (MASN)
Fernando Rodney hasn't been with the Nats for a long time, but he's helped Wander Suero find confidence in his off-speed stuff and has served as a valuable resource for a still relatively young pitcher.

Had it not been for Matt Grace's bad outing, the bullpen would have gone nine straight innings giving up no runs and allowing minimal damage.
