Brewers' Manny Pina out of Thursday's lineup

Milwaukee Brewers catcher Manny Pina is not in the lineup against the Washington Nationals on Thursday.

What It Means:

It's a routine day off for Pina, and Jett Bandy will handle catching duties while batting eighth against Nationals' ace Max Scherzer.

Pina has a .348 wOBA through 64 games in 2017, and numberFire's models project him to bat .265 and add 4 home runs and 18 RBI in 144 plate appearances over the remainder of the season.
