Not yet running Nationals manager Dave Martinez said Adrianza (quadriceps), who was placed on the 10-day injured list Thursday, has yet to resume a running program, Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.co...
Impact The skipper noted that until Adrianza is able to start running again during his rehab program at extended spring training, the Nationals won't have a clear target date for his return from a left quad strain. Adrianza's absence to begin the season allowed Lucius Fox to secure a spot on the Nationals' Opening Day roster as a reserve infielder.

2019 World Series MVP Strasburg goes to 10-day IL for Nats
Stephen Strasburg has been put on the 10-day injured list as he continues his return from thoracic outlet surgeryAPRIL 7, 2022 • ASSOCIATED PRESS
Beginning season on IL Adrianza (quadriceps) will open the season on the 10-day injured list, Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.com reports.
Impact The 32-year-old suffered a quadriceps strain March 31 and it now appears it will keep him out of commission for the first couple series of the 2022 campaign. When healthy, Adrianza will likely operate as super-utility option in the infield off the bench for the Nationals this season. He will look to build upon his .247 batting average and 14 extra-base hits from 2021.

Likely to miss Opening Day roster Manager Dave Martinez said Sunday that Adrianza (quadriceps) hasn't made any notable progress in his recovery from injury and is "still the same," suggesting the infielder isn't on...
Impact Adrianza was expected to open the season as the Nationals' primary utility infielder, but his projected absence could pave the way for both Dee Strange-Gordon and another player to break camp as one of Washington's bench options. A timeline for Adrianza's potential season debut isn't likely to emerge until the 32-year-old advances to full baseball activities.

Diagnosed with strained quadriceps Adrianza's MRI revealed a strained left quadriceps Saturday, Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.com reports.
Impact Adrianza himself believes he'll be ready for Opening Day, but manager Dave Martinez was skeptical. Martinez is seemingly the more reasonable of the pair, as it's tough to see Adrianza getting over a strain in less than a week, but he'll avoid the injured list for now.

Suffers quad injury Adrianza injured his left quad running the bases Thursday against the Mets, Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.com reports.
Impact The severity of the injury is unknown, though manager Davey Martinez suggested the team would know more Friday. The issue puts Adrianza's availability for Opening Day in question. Though Maikel Franco has emerged as the favorite to start at third base, Adrianza is capable of playing nearly every position on the diamond so his absence would cost the Nationals some depth.

In mix for third base job Adrianza will get more reps than expected at third base this spring with Carter Kieboom (forearm) sidelined, Chelsea Janes of The Washington Post reports.
Impact Kieboom was the presumed starter at the hot corner, but with him now likely to miss Opening Day, Nationals manager Dave Martinez will take a look at Adrianza, Maikel Franco and Richard Urena as possible replacements. Adrianza put together a .247/.327/.401 slash line over 209 plate appearances in a utility role for Atlanta last season, seeing action at second base, third base, shortstop and all three outfield spots.

Nabs one-year deal from Nats Adrianza agreed Sunday with the Nationals on a one-year, $1.5 million contract, Jesse Dougherty of The Washington Post reports. The deal also includes performance-based escalators.
Impact With Washington, Adrianza is expected to serve as a utility man, a role he's filled for either Minnesota or Atlanta across each of the past five seasons. He was a key depth piece for Atlanta's World Series-winning club in 2021, hitting .247 with five home runs and 28 RBI across 209 plate appearances while logging innings at second base, third base, shortstop and all three outfield spots.

Away on paternity leave Adrianza was placed on the paternity list Tuesday, Bob Nightengale of USA Today reports.
Impact With a maximum of two games left in the World Series, the move presumably ends Adrianza's season. It won't have much of an impact on Atlanta's plans, as Adrianza has been limited to pinch-hitting duties during the postseason, going 1-for-10 at the plate. Johan Camargo will fill that role in his absence.

Returns to full-time bench role Adrianza remains out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Nationals.
Impact Adrianza made a pair of starts at the keystone to kick off Atlanta's September slate, but he'll be on the bench Wednesday for the fifth game in a row now that everyday second baseman Ozzie Albies has moved past his recent knee injury. With Atlanta locked in a tight battle with the Phillies and Mets for the National League East crown, Adrianza's opportunities are expected to be scarce while manager Brian Snitker continues to lean heavily on his everyday players for the final three weeks of the season.

Stuck in utility role Adrianza remains out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rays.
Impact Adrianza appeared primed for an enhanced role when Ronald Acuna (knee) went down with a season-ending ACL tear shortly before the All-Star break, but Atlanta's recent acquisition of Joc Pederson effectively closes the door on Adrianza's potential window of opportunity. Expect Adrianza to continue to serve as a utility player for Atlanta, a role that should afford him only a couple starts per week.
