Max Scherzer has been diagnosed with a stress fracture in his throwing hand. The injury will keep him from competing in the World Baseball Classic, but the Nationals expect him to fully participate in Spring Training. (ESPN)

Fantasy Impact:

This will certainly be something to monitor this spring considering Scherzer's status as one of the elite fantasy SPs. It's encouraging that the team believes he'll be full-go by the spring and start of the regular season, but owners will want to confirm this as more info is released as draft season approaches.
