Nationals' Victor Robles: Ready for rehab assignment

Robles (hamstring) will begin a rehab assignment with Triple-A Rochester on Tueday, Spencer Nusbaum of The Washington Post reports.

Robles has been sidelined for most of April with a left hamstring strain but has progressed enough to get in some game action in the minors. The plan is for him to see action both at designated hitter and in the outfield while he's on assignment with Rochester. Jacob Young has played well for the Nationals in center field and might hold down an everyday role even after Robles is activated from the 10-day injured list.
