Game #119 Strasburg on the road. Roster move(s) expected: Game Thread

This is the road series finale in Colorado as the Nationals hope to win this series with Stephen Strasburg on the mound. The Nationals will face righty Jon Gray.

We are expecting that Koda Glover will be back with the Nationals today to strengthen the bullpen although the Nats could use a reliever who could pick up several innings as Yusmeiro Petit, Blake Treinen, and Oliver Perez are not available. Sammy Solis is dealing with some arm fatigue. Other than that the bullpen is thin as it’s Belisle, Kelley and Melancon available. There was some speculation that Rizzo would get an extra long man to help out, but that does not look like it will happen.

Ryan Zimmerman and Jose Lobaton could meet the team this weekend in Atlanta which will also trigger roster moves.
