Game 150 lineups: Nats at Marlins

MIAMI - After a couple of losses in a row in Atlanta, the Nationals are glad to be rid of Turner Field forever and set their sights on getting back on track in South Florida.

The club is still completely focused on clinching their third National League East pennant in the past five seasons.

The magic number remains at six as the Mets keep winning. But the Nationals don't have to concern themselves with the team from New York. Just win six games and it's on to the second season.

The Nationals hold a slim 7-6 lead in the season series against Miami and will wrap up the regular season in two weeks at home against the Marlins. The Nats are 4-3 against the Marlins at Marlins Park this season. Both teams are 6-4 in their last 10 games, but Miami has lost 13 of its last 20 games.

Looking to assist in making that next step is right-hander A.J. Cole. He arrives at Marlins Park for the first time with a 1-2 record and 4.71 ERA. The Oviedo, Fla., native is making his first career start against the Marlins. Cole is 1-1 with a 4.50 ERA against NL East opponents this season.

The Marlins counter with veteran and former Orioles southpaw Wei-Yin Chen (5-4, 4.99). Chen is 1-1 with a 5.51 ERA in nine starts at home.

He is 0-1 with a 3.86 ERA in his only start against the Nationals this season. Overall, Chen is just 1-4 with a 4.80 ERA in five career starts against the Nats, allowing five homers in those five games.

Daniel Murphy is out of the lineup for a second straight game. He slid hard into second base on saturday. Bryce Harper sits against the left-handed starter.
