Nunez is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Padres.
The Nationals will go with Jorbit Vivas at second base while Nunez heads to the bench for the series finale. After going 1-for-5 at the plate in the first two games of the series, Nunez actually raised his season average to .189, which places him 155th out of 162 qualified hitters in the majors. The 25-year-old has kept his fantasy value afloat almost solely on the back of his MLB-leading 22 stolen bases.
