Nationals call up Tommy Milone to start on Thursday

Washington Nationals pitcher Tommy Milone will start in place of Stephen Strasburg (shoulder, DL) at the Miami Marlins on Thursday.

What It Means:

Milone was called up to take Strasburg's spot on the active roster when the Nats' ace mysteriously hit the DL again on the day he was scheduled to start. Considering Strasburg missed six weeks with shoulder inflammation earlier this year, Milone could be up for a while.
