Washington Nationals infielder Alcides Escobar is in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Los Angeles Dodgers.
Escobar will start at shortstop for Washington on Saturday after he was acquired from the Kansas City Royals in exchange for cash considerations. He will bat seventh versus left-hander Clayton Kershaw and the Dodgers. Humberto Arteaga has been designated for assignment.
