Nationals' Tanner Roark: Moving up to start Sunday

Roark will start Sunday against the Brewers, MASN's Dan Kolko reports.

Analysis:

A back injury will prevent Stephen Strasburg from taking the hill and will force Roark to move up, but Roark will be on normal rest thanks to Thursday's off day. Roark's strikeout rate is up more than six percent from a year ago (to 21.2 percent), and he's issued more than two walks in just one of 10 starts since the beginning of May.
