FACTS/FLUKES: Storen, Frazier, Holliday, C. Johnson, de la Rosa

Storen still a "future" closer? ... Drew Storen (RHP, WAS)  was the Nationals' closer-in-waiting from the day he was drafted in 2009. And his stellar 2011 only validated the label. But elbow surgery led him to miss half of last season, and he spent much of the rest of the summer in a setup role. With Rafael Soriano (RHP, WAS) in the fold, Storen again seems slotted for the 8th inning.
