Bryce Harper back batting third for Washington
Washington Nationals outfielder Bryce Harper is batting third versus the Atlanta Braves on Tuesday.
What It Means:
Harper spent the last three games batting second as the Nationals shuffled their lineup with Ryan Zimmerman out of action. The first baseman is back in the lineup on Tuesday, moving Harper back to third versus R.A. Dickey and the Braves.
Harper has struggled against Dickey in his career, going 5-for-22 (.222) against the knuckleballer, making him a risky play at a massive $4,500 cost on Tuesday.
