Washington's Tres Barrera sitting Monday

The Washington Nationals did not include Tres Barrera in their lineup for Monday's game against the San Diego Padres.

What It Means:

Barrera will take a seat Monday with Yan Gomes returning to the lineup and batting sixth. Barrera will likely continue to back up Gomes while Alex Avila recovers, but not for much longer than that.

Barrera is projected for just 27 more plate appearances this season, with 3 runs, 2 RBI, and a .208 batting average.
