Fantasy Impact:
After landing on the IL due to MLB's COVID-19 protocols, Lester will have some time to build back up his strength and stamina before rejoining the Nats' starting rotation. Erick Fedde is slated to start tonight's game against the Cardinals, and he will likely remain the Nats' back-end starter until Lester returns.
