Chien-Ming Wang

Chien-Ming Wang (hamstring) will throw in front of coaches Wednesday at Nationals Park.

Wang is nearing the end of his 30-day rehab window, so the Nationals want to take a look at his progress. He allowed four runs over eight innings Monday with Triple-A Syracuse and is slated to make one more rehab start before coming off the disabled list. Ross Detwiler’s early success may make it difficult for him to claim a rotation spot right away. The 32-year-old right-hander has drawn some trade interest.

Chien-Ming Wang (hamstring) will make one more minor league rehab start before coming off the disabled list.

Wang allowed four runs over eight innings Monday with Triple-A Syracuse. His 30-day rehab window doesn’t expire until May 27, so the Nationals still have time to kill, but it’s not clear if he’ll return as a starter or a member of the bullpen. The 32-year-old right-hander has drawn some trade interest, so it’s possible the Nats could swap him to add some depth to their injury-riddled roster.

Chien-Ming Wang (hamstring) allowed two runs in a seven-inning rehab start Monday at Triple-A Syracuse.

He struck out one and walked one while inducing 13 groundball outs. It’s another step in the right direction for the rehabbing Wang, who should be cleared for activation from the disabled list within the next few weeks. Whether he’s going to join the Nationals’ bullpen or rotation is something that still needs to be decided.

Nick Cafardo of the Boston Globe reports that Chien-Ming Wang is drawing trade interest from teams.

Cafardo says the Nationals “would rather deal lefty John Lannan, but teams appear more interested in Wang.” The veteran right-hander is currently on the DL, but he’s over his hamstring injury and pitching well on a rehab assignment. The Nats rotation has been lights out, so trading Wang to shore up another area would make some sense. They also like having the depth, though.

Chien-Ming Wang (hamstring) will make at least one more rehab start before being recalled by the Nationals.

Wang surrendered two runs over seven strong innings for Triple-A Syracuse Wednesday, with manager Davey Johnson saying he received good reports on the right-hander. “He had good sink, good curveball,” Johnson said. “So he’s getting close.” It’s hard to believe the Nats would boot Ross Detwiler from the rotation given how well he’s pitched, so Wang might have to return in a relief role initially.

Chien-Ming Wang’s (hamstring) next rehab start will come Wednesday at Triple-A Syracuse.

It’s possible it will be his last rehab outing before rejoining the Nationals. When he does return, he figures to slide into a long relief role given the success of Ross Detwiler.

Chien-Ming Wang allowed two runs — one earned — on three hits in six innings Friday in his latest rehab assignment with Low-A Hagerstown.

Wang is expected to make at least two more rehab starts before coming off the disabled list, but, doesn’t appear to have a clear path to the majors given the success of Ross Detwiler. The 32-year-old right-hander went 4-3 with a 4.04 ERA in 11 starts with the Nationals last season. He signed a one-year, $4 million contract in November.

Updating a previous item, Chien-Ming Wang (hamstring) will make his next minor league rehab start Friday with Double-A Harrisburg.

Wang was originally scheduled to pitch Thursday, but the outing was scrapped after a two-hour rain delay. He’s expected to make at least two more rehab starts before coming off the disabled list, though Ross Detwiler may make it tough for him to reclaim a rotation spot.

Chien-Ming Wang (hamstring) didn’t make his scheduled rehab start Thursday with Double-A Harrisburg due to a rain delay.
