Dee Strange-Gordon - Added to Saturday's lineupStrange-Gordon is starting Saturday against the Brewers.

ImpactThe 34-year-old wasn't initially listed among Saturday's starters, but he'll start at shortstop and bat ninth after Alcides Escobar (undisclosed) was removed from the lineup. Over nine games since the start of May, Strange-Gordon has hit .185 with two runs, an RBI and three strikeouts.

Ehire Adrianza - Plays in simulated gameAdrianza (quadriceps) played seven innings in a simulated game this week, Jesse Dougherty of The Washington Post reports.

ImpactAdrianza has been out all season while recovering from a strained left quadriceps. While he's yet to play in an official game, his work in the simulated game represents a significant step. He could be ready for a rehab assignment soon, though exactly when that will happen is not yet clear.

Alcides Escobar - Scratched from lineupEscobar was scratched from the lineup for Saturday's game against the Brewers for an undisclosed reason.

ImpactEscobar was initially listed as the starting shortstop Saturday, but the Nationals issued a new lineup with Dee Strange-Gordon starting at shortstop and batting ninth. It's not yet clear whether Escobar is dealing with an injury or whether he'll be available off the bench.

Aaron Ashby - Another start coming soonAshby will start at some point during the Brewers' upcoming road trip, though the team has yet to announce which game, Curt Hogg of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.

ImpactAshby has moved between the rotation and bullpen throughout the season, starting when the Brewers have a long stretch without an off day and remaining in the bullpen otherwise. The team has just started a stretch in which it will play 18 games in 17 days, with 11 of those games coming on a road trip which lasts from May 23 through June 1. Ashby will presumably make one or two starts during that period.

Jake Cousins - Receives PRP injectionCousins (elbow) received a PRP injection Tuesday, Adam McCalvy of MLB.com reports.

ImpactCousins is dealing with a UCL injury in his right elbow, but he's opting against surgery for now. His recovery process was slowed after he recently tested positive for COVID-19, but he's since tested negative. Following Tuesday's injection, the 27-year-old will head to Arizona for 4-to-6 weeks of rest and rehab prior to beginning a throwing program.

Omar Narváez - On bench against leftyNarvaez will sit against lefty Patrick Corbin and the Nationals on Saturday.

ImpactNarvaez has only made a single start against a southpaw this season, so it's no surprise to see him on the bench here. Victor Caratini will get the start behind the plate.
