    Adding Chien-Ming Wang could end up being a steal. But he probably won’t be pitching until June. One of the guys who was likely to be in the rotation to start the season Ross Detwiler, now will be joining Wang on the rehab trail. This is a big blow for the Nats to lose Detwiler, their 1st round pick in 2007.

    The Nats were (are) hoping to keep Steven Strasburg in the minors to start the season, but right now their pitching depth is extremely thin. Washington might look into signing another pitcher on a one year deal so they can protect their young arms. The worst thing Washington could do is rush back Detwiler or bring up Strasburg before he’s ready.

    Where did they get Wang from? So by June will our starting 5 rotation be Wang, Detwiler, Strasburg, Lannon and who?
