Nationals' Matt Wieters out against the Marlins

Washington Nationals catcher Matt Wieters is not in the starting lineup on Wednesday afternoon against the Miami Marlins.

What It Means:

It's just a routine day off for Wieters, and Jose Lobaton will handle catching duties and bat eighth this afternoon.

Wieters has only managed a .293 wOBA through 225 plate appearances in 2017, and his absence shouldn't have much of a negative impact on the Washington offense this afternoon.
