Harper (thumb) is not in the lineup for Monday's game against the Diamondbacks, according to Mark Zuckerman of MASN.

Manager Dusty Baker did not have any details to share regarding Harper's health, but he will sit out at least one game due to the thumb injury he suffered Sunday. The Nationals are still jockeying for playoff positioning, but with a postseason berth secured, they figure to take the cautious route with Harper as long as he's less than 100 percent. Brian Goodwin will get the start in right field in his place Monday evening.
