After a successful return to the mound Friday following surgery on his non-throwing hand, Nationals manager Matt Williams wants to get Storen three or four more innings of work this spring, the Washington Post reports.

Storen had to cover first base on a ground ball to first baseman Mike Carp and had no trouble with Carp's toss, so he's already passed one of the biggest tests. Expect him to be ready to handle ninth inning duties for the Nats by Opening Day.
