6 years agoNationals outfielder Bryce Harper is not in Wednesday's lineup against the Phillies. He was pulled in the ninth inning of last night's game reportedly due to a cold which may be why he is off today. Harper has been back to form since the break, but that has not translated to many wins. The Nationals are six games back from a wild card slot and may not have much to play for in the coming weeks despite their three-game win streak. Harper should continue to produce down the stretch as he is doing everything possible to recoup value he may have lost earlier in the season.--Kev Mahserejian - RotoBaller
