Chien-Ming Wang's long road back to the Major Leagues is finally complete. Wang completed his final rehabilitation start in AAA-Syracuse and will be the starting pitcher for the Washington Nationals when they take on the New York Mets on Friday, the team announced.
Wang has not pitched in the majors since July 4, 2009, when he was a member of the New York Yankees. The Nationals signed him in the winter before the 2010 season hoping he might return by then. He did not, but the Nationals signed him again last winter. Now, it appears he will finally be able to make do on those contracts.

Be interesting to see how he does tonight. If nothing else, there sure have been a lot of..off color jokes livening up the Nats boards of late...:evilgrin:
