Daniel Murphy's omission from Monday's starting lineup was a clear indication that Nationals manager Dusty Baker is still keen on using the final week before the All-Star break to give his key players a rest here and there.

Closer Koda Glover, who was unable to hold a 3-1 lead in the ninth inning, tweaked his back while showering before Saturday's game, tried to gut through the...
