HOUSTON -- The Nationals hope to never use the pitchers added to their World Series roster.

Joe Ross and Wander Suero were put on the 25-man roster, replacing Austin Voth and left-hander Roenis Elías from the National League Championship Series. Neither are expected to play a significant roll in the series.

Ross bounced between the bullpen and starting this season, as well as between the minor and major leagues. Suero led the Nationals in appearances, but was left off the NLCS rosters after allowing a home run in his only NLDS appearance. The team's trust in him is very low.

Otherwise, the roster is as expected.
