Washington Nationals Make Roster Moves Prior to Series Opener Against Dodgers

Washington Nationals made several transactions prior to their series opener against the Dodgers. Nick Senzel returned from a fractured thumb, leading to Trey Lipscomb being sent back to Triple-A Rochester. Keibert Ruiz was placed on the 10-day injured list with influenza, and Drew Millas was recalled from Rochester. Manager Davey Martinez expressed the difficulty of demoting Lipscomb, who had been performing well. Despite this, Martinez remains optimistic about his potential and aims for him to return stronger. Senzel, who signed with the Nationals in December, made a quick recovery from his thumb injury and is now back in the lineup.
