6 years agoWashington Nationals third baseman Anthony Rendon (elbow) was placed on the injured list Tuesday, retroactive to April 27, with a left elbow contusion. Rendon was hit on the elbow on April 20 and returned on April 26 but has not played since. One suspects the Nationals could have handled this situation better, but that's in the past now. The Nationals and fantasy teams everywhere hope Rendon returns soon -- he will be eligible to do so on May 7. Howie Kendrick, who has been playing third base in Rendon's absence, will likely continue to do so and may be worth adding in standard leagues if he is an everyday starter while Rendon is out.--Nathaniel Green
