Washington Nationals outfielder Michael Taylor is not in the lineup on Friday against the New York Mets.
Taylor and several Nationals starters are sitting out Friday, so highly touted prospect Victor Robles is taking over in centerfield. Robles is batting fifth against righty Rob Gsellman.
Our models project Taylor for a .261 batting average, with 1 home run, 3 RBI, 3 runs scored, and 1 steal over 25 plate appearances remaining this season.
