Anthony Rendon is out Saturday in Washington

Washington Nationals third baseman Anthony Rendon is not in the lineup on Saturday against the Pittsburgh Pirates.

What It Means:

Rendon will get the night off on Saturday before the final day game on Sunday. Wilmer Difo will get the start at the hot corner and he is hitting third against right-hander Jameson Taillon.

Our models project Rendon to post a .333 batting average over limited plate appearances remaining this season.
