Nationals' Jose Lobaton starting Wednesday's home game
Washington Nationals catcher Jose Lobaton will start Wednesday afternoon's game against the Atlanta Braves.
What It Means:
Matt Wieters is getting the day off, so Lobaton will handle catching duties and bat eighth against Braves' right-hander Julio Teheran.
Lobaton has an ugly .174 wOBA on a 19.1% hard-hit rate through 63 plate appearances this season, and even in a good matchup against Teheran, he doesn't offer much fantasy value.
