Playing time on downturn Chaparro is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Padres.

Impact Chaparro still appears to be locked into a regular spot in the lineup versus left-handed pitching, but his playing time against righties is trending down following the recent return of James Wood from the injured list. The Nationals will keep Chaparro on the bench Monday for the third time in their last four games matchups against a right-handed starter (Nick Pivetta).

Day off Saturday Chaparro isn't in the lineup for Saturday's game against the Marlins, Mark Zuckerman of NatsJournal.com reports.

Homer in loss Chaparro went 3-for-4 with a solo home run and double in Wednesday's 13-1 loss to the Rockies.

Impact Chaparro started his first game ever at third base on Wednesday and made the most of it in the second inning with a homer into left field.

Since the All-Star break, Chaparro has a 1.131 OPS, eight home runs, 18 runs, and 26 RBI in 30 games.

AUGUST 25 • ROTOWIRE

Hitting bench Monday Chaparro is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Rockies.

Impact Chaparro has begun to gain traction as an everyday player, but the Nationals won't have room in the lineup for him Monday while CJ Abrams is limited to serving as the team's designated hitter after a sprained ankle kept him on the bench for the previous four contests. So long as Abrams is able to resume duties in the middle infield in short order, Chaparro's playing-time outlook should remain favorable over the final month of the season.

AUGUST 24 • ROTOWIRE

Earning more starts versus righties Chaparro will start at first base and bat seventh in Sunday's game against the Marlins.

Impact Since being called up from Triple-A Rochester on May 19, Chaparro has largely served as a short-side platoon player for the Nationals, but he's begun to gain more traction in the lineup versus right-handed pitching lately. He'll crack the starting nine against a righty (Janson Junk) for the third time in four games, after he went 4-for-11 with a home run, a double, a walk, three RBI and three runs over his prior three starts.

Back in action Tuesday Chaparro (head) will start at first base and bat second Tuesday against the Phillies.

Impact Chaparro took a pitch off his head Sunday before missing out on the starting nine Monday, though he was able to enter Monday's contest as a pinch hitter. Now having recovered from the incident, the 27-year-old will return to the starting nine and aim to remain productive after slashing .310/.412/.897 with five homers, 14 RBI and nine runs in 13 games since the All-Star break.

AUGUST 4 • ROTOWIRE

Omitted from lineup Chaparro (head) is out of the lineup for Monday's game against the Phillies, Mark Zuckerman of NatsJournal.com reports.

Impact Despite passing concussion tests after he made an early exit from Sunday's 4-2 loss to Atlanta when he was struck in the helmet by a pitch, Chaparro will be kept on the bench for the series opener in Philadelphia. Even though the Nationals traded Luis Garcia to the Yankees following Sunday's contest, Chaparro could end up sticking in his short-side platoon role at first base rather than seeing a major uptick in an opportunities against right-handed pitching. Washington recalled the left-handed-hitting Abimelec Ortiz from Triple-A Rochester on Monday, and he'll step in at first base right away in the Nationals' first game post-Garcia while right-hander Aaron Nola toes the slab for the Phillies.
