With all the Stephen Strasburg mania, and the lesser, much more composed Drew Storen mania, it would be easy to forget that the Nationals have other pitchers. Other talented pitchers, no less. One of them is Chien-Ming Wang, and though the former Yankee was signed with the knowledge that he'd miss a good chunk of the season recovering from shoulder surgery, he is nearing his return from the DL:
Mike Rizzo says Wang already throwing live BP, on track for mid-July return.
At six out of first, the Nationals are a long shot, but they are beginning to load up their bullets. And even if a pennant race isn't in the cards in 2010, the picture for 2011 is looking rosy, should Wang, Jordan Zimmerman, and Ross Detwiler be able to come back with success.
