Associated Press Bryce Harper watches last night's game from the dugout. |
Harper hoped to return today after missing the series opener, but his toe hasn't healed quite enough yet.
"Harp's still a little tender, and he wanted to wait until he hit on the field," manager Davey Johnson said. "If it's that tender, I'm not starting him. So he's not in the lineup."
With Harper and Jayson Werth (who was officially placed on the 15-day disabled list today) sidelined, Johnson is forced to again cobble together a makeshift outfield that includes Tyler Moore in left field and Roger Bernadina in right field flanking Denard Span.

I agree!
At least he can pinch-hit if needed, and we now have the full 25 in the dugout. Lets hope we don't need him
Go Nats!!
You know when he gets back in the lineup he will be raring to go
After I got back from the game yesterday, I replayed the game on DVD amd FP made a comment about an article Kilgore wrote on Bryce Harper and how he developed his swing. I've looked in the Post's Nats Journal and can't find the article. Anyone else looked for it? If you found it, where was it located and what's the title?

Maybe he got himself in a toe jam with the photo. What?
