Adam Eaton In, Michael Taylor Out On Thursday
6 years agoWashington Nationals outfielder Adam Eaton is back in the lineup on Thursday against the St. Louis Cardinals. Michael Taylor will sit. Matt Wieters will also return behind the plate, while Spencer Kieboom sits the matchup out. The rest of the Nationals lineup remains the same with right-hander Tanner Roark on the mound. The Nationals have been shooting themselves in the foot seemingly game after game as they continue to lose ground in the National League East. The Nats have never faced Cardinals starter Luke Weaver, so Nationals-offensive-player fantasy owners should expect some growing pains. Of course, sluggers like rookie Juan Soto and Bryce Harper are always threats for big games, but Wieters and third baseman Anthony Rendon have both been having a solid stretch, hitting well over .300 their last seven games. Wieters presents a cheap option at the catcher position on Thursday.
