Nationals starting pitcher Stephen Strasburg revealed after his bullpen session Saturday that the issue with his shoulder, which led to his early exit from Tuesday's start, was caused by ankle pain, forcing him to change his mechanics and, subsequently, triggering an alignment issue beneath his shoulder blade, per MASN.com.
Strasburg remains questionable for scheduled May 11 start at Arizona.
