  • Nationals' Luis Garcia: In Saturday's lineup

    Garcia (knee) will start at first base and bat second Saturday against Atlanta.

    Garcia was forced to make an early exit from Friday's game due to right knee soreness, but the injury won't cause him to miss any starts. The 26-year-old is enjoying a career season and hasn't slowed down in the second half, slashing .280/.294/.600 with three homers, eight RBI and three runs scored in 13 games since the break.

    Garcia went 3-for-5 with a home run, a double, a triple and two RBI in Thursday's 5-4 loss to Atlanta.

    Garcia came a single short of hitting for the cycle Thursday. Much of the focus has deservedly been on All-Stars James Wood and CJ Abrams in Washington's high-octane offense, but Garcia is putting together an outstanding campaign in his own right. The 26-year-old has a .976 OPS over 72 games since the beginning of May, now slashing .286/.316/.566 with 23 homers, 19 doubles and 76 RBI across 367 plate appearances for the season. Among qualified batters, Garcia is trailing only Yordan Alvarez and Ben Rice in slugging percentage.

  • Nationals' Luis Garcia: Back on bench versus lefty

    Garcia is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Red Sox.

    After Garcia produced five extra-base hits during the Nationals' weekend series against the Orioles, manager Blake Butera opted to keep the left-handed-hitting first baseman in the lineup against lefty Ranger Suarez in Monday's series opener in Boston. Garcia drew a walk and provided a base hit in his four plate appearances in Monday's 6-3 loss, but it won't be enough to keep him in the lineup for a matchup with another lefty (Connelly Early) on Tuesday. Andres Chaparro will spell Garcia at first base and will bat second.
