Abrams (ankle) isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Marlins.
Abrams hasn't played since he injured his left ankle during the ninth inning of Wednesday's game against Texas. His absence will continue into Saturday, and although the Nationals haven't indicated the 25-year-old will need to spend time on the injured list, he may need to do so if he isn't able to return to action soon. Nasim Nunez will start at shortstop and bat eighth.
