Washburn misses start today, Bootcheck starting tomorrow
MLB.com reports that Washburn missed today's start with a strained left forearm. It was bad enough that they moved Byrd up a day in the rotation and called up Chris Bootcheck to start Sunday. Everyone seems to feel Wash will make his next start. Bootcheck will face the Big Unit.
Also, the article mentions that Escobar is playing catch from 90 feet away and is expected to pitch from a mound in a week and a half. If all goes well, I would expect him back in Anaheim at the end of August or the beginning of September.
