Matt Grace will pitch in a game on Monday. (Jake Roth/USA TODAY Sports)MIAMI — Washington Nationals left-hander Matt Grace will begin a rehab assignment with Class AA Harrisburg on Monday, Nationals Manager Dave Martinez announced before his club took on the Miami Marlins on Saturday afternoon. It will be Grace’s second rehab assignment since he went on the 10-day disabled list with a left groin strain April 21. Grace will leave Sunday to join Harrisburg, which welcomed Daniel Murphy and Brian Goodwin Saturday as the pair began their own rehab assignments. The Nationals have the luxury of platooning Matt Adams and Mark Reynolds in Zimmerman’s absence, a combination better than most teams’ options at first base.
