Nationals rookie reliever Drew Storen hopes to make the team's Opening Day roster and pick the brains of the team's veteran pitchers.

"I'm going to try not to annoy them. That's something I did with some of the older guys [in the Minor Leagues]," said Storen.

"Professional baseball is different from college. If I can just sit there and ask questions, I can learn a lot about things on and off the field -- how to pitch to guys and what to do in certain situations. I feel fortunate being around those guys."

Storen, drafted in the first round of the 2009 First-Year Player Draft, is considered one of the top prospects in the Nationals' farm system.
