Could still play Friday Soto (calf) will be evaluated Friday afternoon and could play in the evening Grapefruit League game against the Mets, Mark Zuckerman of MASNSports.com reports. Impact The 22-year-old exited Thursday's spring game after his right calf tightened up, but it's been described as a minor injury, and the fact he hasn't already been ruled out supports that assertation. There's no real reason to rush Soto back into the lineup Friday, so it wouldn't be surprising to see the Nationals exercise caution by giving him a day or two to recover.
