Excerpted from washingtonpost.com/nationals

Doolittle, Elias take positive steps

The Washington Nationals’ bullpen is down to one

left-hander, Matt Grace, but could soon get two

lefties back from the injured list.

Sean Doolittle and Roenis Elías each threw a

simulated inning at Nationals Park on Wednesday.

They both threw 16 pitches off the mound to

outfielder Gerardo Parra and catcher Spencer

Kieboom and, according to Manager Dave

Martinez, came out of it feeling good. But his

assessments of the two pitchers varied in tone

before the Nationals’ 8-4 win over the Baltimore

Orioles, and Doolittle later complemented that

with mixed feelings of his own.

Martinez raved about Elías’s progress and hinted

that the trade-deadline acquisition could be back

as soon as Friday. He was a bit more measured with

Doolittle, the team’s struggling closer, and repeated

that the Nationals will see how Doolittle feels

Thursday. Doolittle said Wednesday night that

while he felt good physically and his knee came out

pain-free, his mechanics and pitches still need

more work. Doolittle expects to make a rehab

appearance with Class A Potomac in Frederick on

Friday.

“I felt good physically, and that was

encouraging,” Doolittle said. “But not good enough

where I want my next appearance to be up here.”

Doolittle is sidelined with right knee tendinitis,

but he also hit the IL on Aug. 18 because his arm is

tired from a heavy workload. Elías is out with a

right hamstring strain after injuring it in his first

game with Washington on Aug. 2. If the Nationals

wait until Sunday, they could activate either

pitcher without having to make a corresponding

move.
