Glover could still begin the season in the minors, Chelsea Janes of The Washington Post reports.

Despite being one of the primary candidates for the open closer role in Washington, Glover may not even make the 25-man roster if he doesn't win the ninth-inning job. The Nats have plenty of depth in short relief after signing Joe Blanton, and could elect to use the final spot in the bullpen on a long reliever instead of Glover. While he still has significant upside in saves, the 23-year-old is also the most volatile of the team's three closer contenders from a fantasy value perspective.
