Trea Turner Update

Nice set of arms taking mounds in farm system .
Bach is coming along nice.
What happened to Von Orden??
Now that it’s May, got to think that Giolito and Lopez will be make their debuts soon. Still think that the Nats held them back to make it possible for one or both to be available for a September/October call-up. Nice to have the leverage of a triple digit arms late in the season.
