PJ Poulin - Transferred to 60-day IL Poulin (forearm) was transferred to the 60-day injured list Sunday.

Impact Poulin has been out since mid-July while recovering from a left flexor strain, and he will now be sidelined until at least mid-September while on the 60-day IL. The Nationals acquired right-handed pitchers Yovanny Cruz, Jake Bird, Ben Grable and Jack Cebert on Sunday from the Yankees in exchange for infielder Luis Garcia, and Poulin's move to the 60-day IL frees up a spot on the 40-man roster.
