Werth, Span out of Nats lineup

Werth, Span out of Nats lineup
ATLANTA - Jayson Werth, who left last night's game with a tightness in his groin, is out of the Nationals lineup today. Also out of the lineup is Denard Span, who will sit today with the Braves starting left-hander Alex Wood. Werth was pulled from last night's game in the 10th inning, and manager Matt Williams said after the game that Werth would be reevaluated today. We'll wait to get an update on his status. Bryce Harper will play center field today for the Nats, with Nate McLouth...

Nats lineup in series opener vs. Braves (plus Atlanta lineup)

Nats lineup in series opener vs. Braves (plus Atlanta lineup)
ATLANTA - The Nationals will face Braves right-hander Julio Teheran for the second time in seven days tonight at Turner Field. Teheran allowed two runs over seven innings in an Atlanta win over the Nats in D.C. last Saturday, and he also added two hits to help his own cause. The Nats will send Tanner Roark to the mound for his second start of the season. Roark picked up the win in his 2014 debut, holding the Mets to two runs in six strong innings. For the Nats CF Denard Span 2B Anthony...

Span, Lobaton out of Nats lineup for finale with Fish

Span, Lobaton out of Nats lineup for finale with Fish
The Nationals lineup for today's 4:05 p.m. finale of a three-game series against the Marlins has a slightly different look to it. Denard Span, who is hitting .241 through the first eight games and in a 2-for-17 slump, is taking a seat. He'll be replaced by Nate McLouth, who will lead off and play center field. Because it's a day game after a night game - and a getaway game before the Nats head to Atlanta for a weekend series - catcher Jose Lobaton isn't starting. Instead, backup Sandy Leon...

Orioles and Tigers lineups
J.J. Hardy's lower back spasms are no longer an issue, and he's in the Orioles lineup for today's game at Comerica Park against the Tigers. With Hardy in, Ryan Flaherty takes a seat, no real surprise considering he's 0-for-15 with seven strikeouts. Nick Markakis is today's DH, batting fifth. For the Orioles David Lough LF Nelson Cruz RF Chris Davis 1B Adam Jones CF Nick Markakis DH J.J. Hardy SS Matt Wieters C Steve Lombardozzi 2B Jonathan Schoop 3B Bud Norris RHP For the Tigers Ian...

Harper batting sixth in reworked Nats lineup

Harper batting sixth in reworked Nats lineup
NEW YORK - The injury to Wilson Ramos has at least partly led to a handful of changes to the Nationals lineup. Anthony Rendon, who hit eighth on opening day, will bat second today. Adam LaRoche, who hit seventh in the opener, will hit cleanup today. Ian Desmond will bat seventh. And most surprising of all, Bryce Harper will bat sixth for the Nationals today against Mets right-hander Bartolo Colon. Harper has battled lower than the No. 5 spot in the order just four times - the first four games...

Here's your Nats opening day lineup

Here's your Nats opening day lineup
NEW YORK - Hello from Citi Field, everyone. There was snow falling from the sky when I left my hotel early this morning - how's that for opening day weather? - and the tarp is on the field, but the forecast looks OK for later on today. Manager Matt Williams has posted his first regular season lineup as a big league manager, and it's got a couple of interesting twists. Ryan Zimmerman will bat second today against Mets right-hander Dillon Gee, Wilson Ramos will hit cleanup and Bryce Harper...

Nats lineup for Strasburg's final spring start

Nats lineup for Strasburg's final spring start
VIERA, Fla. - Stephen Strasburg will make his final spring training start against the Mets, a game that will be broadcast on MASN HD at 1 p.m. Manager Matt Williams said this morning that he hopes to get the right-hander, who will start the Nats' season opener in Flushing, N.Y., against the Mets, about five innings today. That could increase to six innings if Strasburg's pitch count is low. Here's the Nationals lineup against the Mets: CF Denard Span 2B Anthony Rendon RF Jayson Werth 3B...

Nats lineup has Espinosa at second, Harper hitting fifth
VIERA, Fla. - Doug Fister's long-awaited second Grapefruit League start this spring comes against the same team that he faced all the way back on March 2 - the Miami Marlins. An MRI after Fister's spring debut showed that the right-hander had inflammation in his right elbow, but 20 days later, he's now discomfort-free and back on the mound at Space Coast Stadium today hoping to make it through three innings against a Marlins split-squad. Anthony Rendon is indeed out of today's lineup, as...

We get Gio Gonzalez and Adam Wainwright today in Jupiter

We get Gio Gonzalez and Adam Wainwright today in Jupiter
JUPITER, Fla. - After getting quite a pitching matchup yesterday in Viera between Stephen Strasburg and Max Scherzer, we'll get another stellar couple of starters taking the mound today here in Jupiter. Gio Gonzalez will get the ball for the Nationals, and Adam Wainwright will make his fourth start of spring for the Cardinals. Gonzalez seemed to make every single one of his spring starts last year here in Jupiter, which became a running joke among reporters and the left-hander. So here he...

Espinosa in Nats lineup vs. Tigers
VIERA, Fla. - For the second straight day, we're getting a Nationals lineup chock full of regulars. The only change in terms of players from last night is that Danny Espinosa is starting at second base and hitting eighth, instead of Anthony Rendon. Ryan Zimmerman and Jayson Werth flip spots today, with Zimmerman fourth in the lineup and Werth third. Other than that, the lineup stays as-is. Another thing we're getting today is a great starting pitching matchup: Stephen Strasburg vs. Max...

Nats fielding a possible opening day lineup tonight live on MASN (with notes)
VIERA, Fla. - Those of you who will be watching tonight's Nationals-Astros game on MASN (airing live at 6 p.m.) will get a treat. Manager Matt Williams is running out a lineup loaded with regulars. In fact, Williams said that his lineup tonight could end up being "close" to the starting lineup that he runs out on opening day less than two weeks from now. Things could and will certainly change based on lefty/righty pitching matchups and even the team that the Nats are playing, Williams...

Fister briefly discusses elbow issue, plus split-squad lineups
VIERA, Fla. - Doug Fister didn't want to discuss his elbow issue in much detail this morning, but the Nationals right-hander did briefly answer a couple of questions about his health a day after he was scratched from his scheduled start against the Astros due to inflammation in his right elbow. According to manager Matt Williams, Fister felt discomfort in his elbow after his first spring training start, which came last Sunday against the Marlins. Williams said that an MRI showed inflammation...

Williams wants to get a closer look at Jordan (plus lineups and other notes)
VIERA, Fla. - Former NFL quarterback Doug Flutie is here at Space Coast Stadium today, wearing a personalized No. 22 Nationals jersey. Flutie, who went to Boston College, also has shorts with a Red Sox logo on them, repping two organizations at once. I guess we can let that slide. Flutie took batting practice in the Nats' third hitting group today and spent some time talking to players and team staffers. The former Heisman Trophy winner and Pro Bowler actually has a pretty good swing and...

Nats lineup vs. Mets has Walters starting at second (Walters scratched)
VIERA, Fla. - Zach Walters has played just 11 games at second base in his professional career. He'll play second today as the Nationals host the Mets for the first time this spring. Gio Gonzalez will make his spring debut today, and the Nats lineup features many regulars. Anthony Rendon and Danny Espinosa are both out of the starting lineup, however, and Walters is getting a rare start there. I asked manager Matt Williams about the decision to play Walters at second today, and I'll have...
