Nationals' Stephen Strasburg (illness) will pitch Game 5 of NLDS

Washington Nationals pitcher Stephen Strasburg will not pitch Game 4 and will remain in line to start Game 5 of the NLDS, according to MLB.com's Mark Feinsand.

What It Means:

Feinsand is also reporting that Strasburg is "feeling under the weather", as is the case with much of the Nationals' roster. On top of that, Strasburg threw a bullpen session today, which contributes to Baker's decision to roll out Tanner Roark in tomorrow's rescheduled game.

In Game 1, Strasburg went 7 innings, with 10 strikeouts to 2 unearned runs. The loss brought his postseason record to 0-2 in 2 starts, but he still owns a 0.75 ERA in 12 innings of playoff work.
