Latest News
| Denard Span takes a breather |
by Igor Mello | CBSSports.com (5/14/13) Nationals outfielder Denard Span was given the day off Tuesday night against the Dodgers.
The Nationals elected to go with an outfield of Stephen Lombardozzi, Eury Perez and Tyler Moore Tuesday night against opposing starter Clayton Kershaw.
Span has a .206 average against lefties this season. He has a .282/.333/.436 line with two RBI through 10 May games.

| Denard Span scores team's only run |
by Bill Passonno | CBSSports.com (5/12/13) Nationals outfielder Denard Span went 1 for 4 with a double and scored the run in a 2-1 loss to the Cubs on Sunday. Span halted a brief two-game hitless skid -- his longest of the season -- with his fourth double in May and is hitting .273.

| Rafael Soriano escapes on loud out |
by Chris Towers | CBSSports.com (5/9/13) Nationals closer Rafael Soriano came a few feet from blowing it, but he saved his 12th game of the season Thursday against the Tigers.
Soriano got the first two outs of the ninth easily, but hit a speed bump when faced with the heart of the lineup. Soriano allowed Miguel Cabrera to reach on a two-out single, and came five feet from blowing the save against Prince Fielder. Fielder drove a ball to the deepest part of the park, but center fielder Denard Span tracked the ball down for a loud out at the warning track to preserve a 5-4 win.
Soriano has 12 saves in 13 opportunities, with a 2.25 ERA.

| Extra rest benefits Denard Span |
by Bill Passonno | CBSSports.com (5/5/13) Nationals outfielder Denard Span returned to the starting lineup for Sunday's game at Pittsburgh after sitting Saturday to rest his sore right foot. Span, who took his normal spot in the leadoff spot, has collected a hit in eight of his past 10 games for a .282 batting average.

| 'Good chance' Denard Span will return Sunday |
by Igor Mello | CBSSports.com (5/4/13) Nationals outfielder Denard Span, who was held out Saturday with a foot injury, told the Washington Post there's a "good chance" he returns for Sunday's series finale against the Pirates.
Span had hit .375 (6 for 16) with two doubles and two RBI in a four-game span before fouling two balls off his right foot and going 0 for 4 Friday. He is considered day-to-day.

| After five seasons of dealing with head injuries and underwhelming steals totals, the Twins shipped Denard Span to Washington in the offseason, where he'll get a chance to restore a career that once showed such promise. The good news for him is he appeared to bounce back last year from the severe concussion that sidelined him for half of 2011. The bad news is it didn't compel him to steal any more bases. His 17 last year were the fewest he's had in a 500-at-bat season, and he's never had more than 26. Why he didn't run more for a Minnesota team that typically had to manufacture runs during his stay there is a question that could determine whether or not he's worth the trouble now that he's in a new environment. If the environment was the problem, great. He's a genuinely sleeper in Fantasy. If the player's mindset was the problem, you can bet Span won't be inclined to run any more with Bryce Harper and Ryan Zimmerman hitting behind him. If nothing else, Span's move to Washington should mean a higher number of runs scored, and that, combined with his above-average walk rate and improving extra-base pop should make him a fringe outfielder in mixed leagues, particularly Head-to-Head formats.
