• Nationals' Matt Adams: Heads to DL with broken finger

  4D ago • By RotoWire Staff

  Adams was placed on the 10-day disabled list with a broken finger, Mark Zuckerman of MASN Sports reports. Adams was hit by a pitch in his left index finger Friday. He'll now likely be out at least a few weeks, though an exact recovery timeline has not yet been made clear. Wilmer Difo should continue to get regular playing time at second base, with Daniel Murphy continuing to play first base, though Mark Reynolds is also an option at first.

  Adams (finger) is not in the lineup for Monday's game against the Yankees. Adams will remain on the bench for a third straight game as he continues to nurse a finger injury that he picked up after taking a pitch off his left index finger Friday. Mark Reynolds will start at first base and hit sixth in his stead. Adams should be considered day-to-day.

• Nationals' Matt Adams: Splint gone from finger

  5D ago • By RotoWire Staff

  Adams was seen in the clubhouse without a splint on his injured finger Sunday, Chelsea Janes of The Washington Post reports. He left Friday's game after taking a pitch off his left index finger, and hasn't played since. While the Nats haven't given an indication when Adams would return, they will essentially need two lineups Monday against the Yankees -- one to complete the suspended game from May 15, and then one for the full game scheduled for a 7:05 ET start time -- so the team has to hope that the first baseman will be ready to go for at least one of those games after getting a couple of days to mend.

  Adams (hand), who is not in Sunday's lineup, remains "day-to-day" according to manager Dave Martinez, Mark Zuckerman of MASN Sports reports. Adams was lifted from Friday's game due to an unspecified hand injury, and hasn't seen the starting lineup since. Though initial X-rays came back clean, the team intends to send Adams for another set after the swelling in his hands subsides. In the meantime, Daniel Murphy will draw his second consecutive start at first base in the series finale.

  Manager Dave Martinez said Adams' (hand) X-ray results "didn't really show much," Mark Zuckerman of MASN Sports reports. Adams exited Friday's game with the injury and is likely to undergo another X-ray on Monday once the swelling in his hand subsides. Daniel Murphy gets the start at first base Saturday with Mark Reynolds another option to start with Adams seemingly sidelined through at least Monday.
