Encouraging Words About Chien-Ming Wang

The most encouraging words stated today about Chien-Ming Wang since the day he signed with Our Washington Nationals last spring. Mike Rizzo commenting on his condition during a conference call with reporters this afternoon:

"He's coming in at the beginning of spring training. He's throwing off the mound and working out in Arizona as we speak. He's not in rehabilitation mode right now. He's in preparation mode to get ready for spring training."

If Chien-Ming Wang is truly ready to pitch again, he's a big upgrade for Our Washington Nationals starting rotation in 2011.
