Daniel Murphy

Nationals' Daniel Murphy (leg) sitting again Wednesday

Washington Nationals second baseman Daniel Murphy (leg) is once again out of the Nationals' starting lineup on Wednesday as they take on the Miami Marlins.

What It Means:

This makes four missed starts in a row for Murphy, who is dealing with left leg soreness. Stephen Drew will get the start at second base and bat sixth on Wednesday.

The 31-year-old Murphy is enjoying career-highs across the board with a .348/.392/.598 slash, .410 wOBA and .250 ISO in 579 plate appearances. His 25 home runs and 104 RBI's are also the most he's put up in a season.
