Mitchell Parker Pulled After Taking Comebacker Off His Leg
Mitchell Parker (leg) took a 107.2 mph comebacker off his left leg during his outing on Wednesday against the division-rival Atlanta Braves off the bat of third baseman Austin Riley. Manager Dave Martinez pulled Parker with two outs and runners on second and third in the fifth inning. Parker was charged with four earned runs on four hits while walking two and striking out six in 4 2/3 innings in a no-decision in the team's eventual 5-4 victory. The 25-year-old will surely undergo X-rays to see if he has any fractures or breaks in his leg, so fantasy managers will want to check back later on Wednesday or early on Thursday for an update on his condition. At the very least, Parker's next start is in jeopardy. He's now allowed at least four earned runs in each of his last four outings for the Nats.
