Today's lineups: Leon spells Flores

← return to Nationals Watch

MILWAUKEE — The Washington Nationals look to win their seventh straight game tonight at Miller Park, sending left-hander Ross Detwiler to the mound against the Brewers and right-hander Mike Fiers. 

The lineup for the Nationals is pretty standard at this point and outside of some righty-lefty tweaks I doubt it’ll change much until the Nationals get Jayson Werth back from the disabled list. One change is that Jesus Flores is out of the lineup for the fifth time in the last seven games. Flores had been dealing with a stiff back but the catcher appeared to put it behind him this past week in New York.

We’ll find out more when the clubhouse opens.

For now, here are the lineups:

Nationals

Steve Lombardozzi 2B
Bryce Harper RF
Ryan Zimmerman 3B
Adam LaRoche 1B
Michael Morse LF
Danny Espinosa SS
Roger Bernadina CF
Sandy Leon C
Ross Detwiler P

Brewers

Norichika Aoki RF
Nyjer Morgan CF
Ryan Braun LF
Aramis Ramirez 3B
Corey Hart 1B
Rickie Weeks 2B
Jonathan Lucroy C
