Koda Glover News
Washington Nationals manager Dave Martinez said relief pitcher Koda Glover will be the official closer with Ryan Madson (back) landing on the disabled list. However, Glover is unlikely to be available on Tuesday after pitching back-to-back days. Justin Miller would likely fill in Tuesday if a save situation arises. Glover has only tossed 1 2/3 innings this year and gave up the game-winning homer Monday night, so he's only an option for those desperate for saves. Sean Doolittle (foot) still has no timetable to return, and Kelvin Herrera (shoulder) is also sidelined.
Nationals relief pitcher Koda Glover was put in the game during the bottom of the ninth Monday evening and gave up a walk-off home run to Paul DeJong. This was Glover's third appearance since activation from the disabled list and first opportunity in the ninth inning. With relievers Sean Doolittle, Kelvin Herrera and Ryan Madson all dealing with injuries, Glover was one of the options considered to close out games. Today's outing certainly did not help his case. Glover may get a real save opportunity to prove himself in the coming days, but the Nationals closer situation remains something to keep an eye.
Washington Nationals relief pitcher Koda Glover (shoulder) allowed three hits and a walk in one inning of work at Triple-A Syracuse on Wednesday. Glover was knocked around during his outing last Saturday as well. The 25-year-old righty reliever has been sidelined all season because of a shoulder injury. Glover has the potential to be a late inning reliever in Washington, but he does not seem like a solid bet this season. The Nats have other options for late inning spots right now, so leave Glover on the waiver wire.
