Nationals first-round pick Lucas Giolito will undergo Tommy John elbow reconstruction surgery, a diagnosis confirmed Wednesday when he received a second opinion from physician Lewis Yocum in Los Angeles. Yocum, the same doctor who operated on both Stephen Strasburg and Jordan Zimmermann, will perform the surgery Aug. 31.  The Nationals drafted Giolito with the 16th overall pick and signed him at the deadline to a $2.925 million signing bonus. The Nationals chose Giolito, 18, with the expectation that he may need Tommy John surgery. He spent his senior high school season in Southern California rehabbing from a strained elbow ligament. wash post
