Nationals' Stephen Strasburg (hand) diagnosed with carpal tunnel syndrome
Washington Nationals pitcher Stephen Strasburg has been diagnosed with carpal tunnel syndrome in his hand.
What It Means:
Strasburg was placed on the injured list six days ago with a hand/thumb issue after exiting his scheduled start in the first inning. The Nationals are still deciding how to handle his recovery, and admitted that surgery is on the table as a possible solution.
Strasburg has pitched just 5 innings this season, resulting in a 10.8 ERA and 1.80 WHIP with 2 strikeouts, and 1 walk.
