Span sits, Zimmerman in left, Harper in center
By Dan Kolko
As expected, Nationals center fielder Denard Span is getting today off. And as expected, Ryan Zimmerman is back in the lineup.
Span will rest tonight after banging and scraping his knee on the warning track while making a sliding catch last night. That will free up a spot for Zimmerman to return to the lineup after getting the last three days off. Zimmerman will play left field tonight, and Bryce Harper will slide over and play center.
Gio Gonzalez will make what's scheduled to be his last regular season start tonight, looking for double-digit wins on the season.
He'll be opposed by Mets righty Dillon Gee.
For the Nationals
3B Anthony Rendon
LF Ryan Zimmerman
RF Jayson Werth
1B Adam LaRoche
SS Ian Desmond
CF Bryce Harper
C Wilson Ramos
2B Asdrubal Cabrera
LHP Gio Gonzalez
