Nationals' Ryan Zimmerman: Set to start rehab Monday
Zimerman (wrist) will start his rehab with Triple-A Syracuse on Monday, Chelsea Janes of the Washington Post reports.
Analysis:
Zimmerman recently started hitting and was considered a candidate to go on a rehab assignment at some point this week. The date has arrived early in the timeframe, and he will now look to round into form before rejoining the Nationals. The veteran has struggled this season at the plate, posting a career-low .290 wOBA, but has the ability to provide some power (12 home runs) if in need.
