Dylan Crews’ return tonight from the 60-day injured list is a major development for the Nationals, and his performance over the next six weeks is one of the team’s most important storylines down the stretch of what has been an incredibly depressing season.

The Washington Post's Andrew Golden reports that Crews will play four or five innings for Triple-A Rochester on Wednesday and then travel to the nation's capital. Crews was officially placed on the injured list with his left oblique strain on May 21. He hurt himself on a check swing.
