  • Nationals' Michael Soroka: Cleared for rehab start

    Soroka (biceps) is expected to make a rehab start for Double-A Harrisburg on Tuesday.

    Soroka was placed on the injured list April 4 due to a right biceps strain but has made positive strides in his recovery in recent days. He completed a bullpen session over the weekend without issue and has now received the green light to take the next step forward in his rehab process by heading to the minors. The Nationals haven't outlined their plans for Soroka, but he may need to make an additional rehab start after Tuesday before becoming an option for the big-league rotation.

  • Nationals' Michael Soroka: Nearing rehab assignment

    Soroka (biceps) threw a bullpen session Saturday, Spencer Nusbaum of The Washington Post reports.

    Soroka has been out of action since late March due to a right biceps strain. He resumed his throwing program in a simulated game Wednesday, and barring any setbacks from his session Saturday, the 27-year-old right-hander should embark on a rehab assignment next week.

  • Nationals' Michael Soroka: Slated for simulated game

    Soroka (biceps) will throw a simulated game Wednesday, Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.com reports.

    It will be his first time facing hitters since he went down with a right biceps strain in his season debut March 31. If Soroka's simulated game goes well, he'll likely be cleared to make 1-to-2 rehab starts. That would set the right-hander up to return in late April or early May if he continues to progress.

  • Nationals' Michael Soroka: Goes on IL with biceps strain

    The Nationals placed Soroka on the 15-day injured list Friday with a right bicep strain, Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.com reports.

    Soroka had hoped to make his next start after exiting his first outing of the season March 31 with what the team had referred to as a bicep cramp. However, the injury is now classified as a strain and will sideline him for at least a couple starts. It's not yet clear whom the Nationals will turn to in Soroka's spot in the rotation.

  • Nationals' Michael Soroka: Lined up to start Sunday

    The Nationals are listing Soroka (bicep) as their scheduled starter for Sunday's game versus the Diamondbacks, Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.com reports.

    Soroka is scheduled to play catch Wednesday after exiting Monday's 5-2 loss to the Blue Jays due to a right bicep cramp. He'll still need to complete Wednesday's workout as well as throw a bullpen session without any setbacks, but if that happens as expected, he'll be ready to take the hill this weekend.

  • Nationals' Michael Soroka: Leaves start with biceps cramp

    Soroka was pulled from Monday's start against the Blue Jays due to a right biceps cramp, Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.com reports.

    The club was initially concerned that Soroka had suffered a more serious injury, per Zuckerman, but it was later revealed that he was simply trying to fight off a cramp. The issue shouldn't cause Soroka to miss his next scheduled start, which tentatively lines up for Sunday against Arizona, but the team will likely monitor him throughout the week to make sure he bounces back.

  • Nationals' Michael Soroka: Walks off with trainer

    Soroka left Monday's start against the Blue Jays with an apparent right hand injury, Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.com reports. He allowed four runs on five hits and one walk while striking out three over five innings prior to departing.

    Soroka appeared to be in discomfort after missing badly on his 83rd pitch of the night, and he walked off with the team trainer shortly after. He'll likely be taken to the clubhouse for further evaluation and can be considered day-to-day until the team has more news to share.

  • Nationals' Michael Soroka: Stumbles in final spring outing

    Soroka got tagged for six runs on five hits and four walks over 4.2 innings in Friday's Grapefruit League game against the Marlins. He struck out three.

    The 27-year-old righty won't head into the regular season with much momentum, but Soroka is still locked into a rotation spot for the Nationals. He wraps up his spring with a 7.47 ERA and 13:11 K:BB through 15.2 innings, and his breakout 2019 season with Atlanta is a long time, and multiple serious injuries, in Soroka's past.

  • Nationals' Michael Soroka: Sharp in Thursday's outing

    Soroka gave up one run on four hits over four innings in Thursday's Grapefruit League game against the Cardinals. He struck out six without walking a batter.

    The right-hander built up to 61 pitches (37 strikes) as he faced a number of St. Louis regulars, including Nolan Arenado, Lars Nootbaar and Masyn Winn. Injuries looked like they had completely derailed Soroka's career, but he found some success last season in the bullpen for the White Sox, and he's now in camp with the Nats looking to prove he still has something to offer as a starter. So far so good for Soroka, who's delivered a 9:1 K:BB through his first seven spring innings.

  • Nationals' Michael Soroka: Sparkling spring debut

    Soroka walked one and struck out three over three scoreless, no-hit innings during Saturday's Grapefruit League game against the Cardinals.

    Facing a St. Louis lineup that featured a number of likely Opening Day starters, Soroka got Willson Contreras to ground into a double play to end the first inning before including Nolan Gorman and Pedro Pages among his strikeout victims over his final two frames. Soroka is attempting to prove he can still be an effective big-league starting pitcher after finishing 2024 in the bullpen for the White Sox, signing a one-year, $9 million prove-it deal with the Nats in December. The double-play grounder might have been a better sign on that front than the Ks -- during his one outstanding campaign in 2019 with Atlanta, Soroka recorded a 51.2 percent groundball rate, a mark that sunk to 40.3 percent last season.
