Brady House News: Added to roster ahead of debut

The Nationals selected House's contract from Triple-A Rochester on Monday. He will start at third base and bat sixth in the Nationals' series opener versus the Rockies.

Reports surfaced Sunday indicating that House was on his way to the big leagues, and the move is now official. The top prospect earned a promotion after slashing .304/.353/.519 with 13 home runs in 65 contests with Rochester. He will take over as the Nationals' everyday third baseman.
