Roger Bernadina is not listed on the Nationals’ lineup card this afternoon, a likely indication that he has either been optioned to Class AAA Syracuse, or perhaps is about to be traded, in order to make room for Chien-Ming Wang on the Nationals’ 25-man roster. More to come when further information is available.
Bernadina is hitting .247/.312/.352 this season and has served as the Nationals’ full-time center fielder since Manager Dave Johnson took over last month.
This offseason, Wang signed a one-year, $1 million contract laden with incentive bonuses. Those incentives included a roster bonus, and so Wang will earn extra salary simply by pitching tonight.
