Jayson Werth (hamstring) out of Nationals' lineup, Matt den Dekker starting
Washington Nationals outfielder Jayson Werth is not in the Nationals' starting lineup Thursday against the Miami Marlins.
What It Means:
He left Wednesday's game with tightness in his left hamstring. Werth is considered day-to-day. Matt den Dekker will start in left field and bat leadoff Thursday versus Marlins righty Tom Koehler.
Our 2016 projections have Werth posting a .314 wOBA with 16 home runs. Through 50 plate appearances, he owns a .309 wOBA with two long balls.
