Impact Lord last pitched Sunday, when he was rocked for five runs over 1.1 innings. He could return when his 15 days are up or close to it if he is indeed merely dealing with tightness, but the Nationals could still need to send Lord for imaging to see if he has a strain.

Impact Lord recorded his first career save Saturday, extending his scoreless streak to 8.1 innings in the process.

Through 40.1 frames, Lord sports a 2.45 ERA, 0.99 WHIP and 34:10 K:BB with five holds.
