Harper (groin) will start in right field and bat third in the order Monday against the Orioles, Chelsea Janes of The Washington Post reports.

Harper missed all three games of the Nationals' series with the Phillies over the weekend due to the groin issue, but as expected, a stay on the disabled list was never in the cards for the outfielder. Chris Heisey, who had started two of the last three games in place of Harper, will return to his customary bench role.
