So that lineup I posted 45 minutes ago? Throw it out.

Dmitri Young has a left heel bruise. He is listed as day-to-day. It apparently happened when he landed on a base wrong during the Houston series.

So the new Nationals' lineup, without the team's best hitter, reads like this:

Lopez -- 6
Belliard -- 4
Zimmerman -- 5
Church -- 7
Kearns -- 9
Fick -- 3
Schneider -- 2
Langerhans -- 8
Traber -- 1

That's three left-handed hitters in a row from 6-8, which is not ideal. But then again, there's not a lot about this lineup, even fully loaded, that's ideal.
