Sitting one or two daysManager Dave Martinez said Soto (calf) will receive one or two days off "just to make sure he's right," Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.com reports.
ImpactThe 22-year-old left Thursday's contest with right calf tightness and is out of Friday's lineup, but there doesn't appear to be much concern over the injury. Soto will take a couple days to recover from the injury, but it shouldn't affect his availability for Opening Day.

ImpactThe 22-year-old exited Thursday's spring game after his right calf tightened up, but it's been described as a minor injury, and the fact he hasn't already been ruled out supports that assertation. There's no real reason to rush Soto back into the lineup Friday, so it wouldn't be surprising to see the Nationals exercise caution by giving him a day or two to recover.
