Nationals' Stephen Strasburg: Scratched from Sunday's start

Strasburg (back) has been scratched from his scheduled start Sunday against the Brewers, MASN's Dan Kolko reports.

Analysis:

Upon completion of a light bullpen session Friday, Strasburg said he expected to take Sunday's turn, but apparently he felt some renewed discomfort Saturday. Tanner Roark will move up to start on normal rest Sunday in Strasburg's place. A DL stint for Strasburg seems increasingly likely, as the Nats would be able to backdate it to June 16.
