Idle against southpaw
Garcia is out of the lineup for Tuesday's game against the Guardians.
Analisi
The left-handed-hitting Garcia will take a seat for the second time in three days while the Nationals face off against another left-handed starter (Joey Cantillo). Andres Chaparro will step in for Garcia at first base and will bat third.

Drives in four vs. Cleveland
Garcia went 3-for-5 with a home run, a double, four RBI and an additional run scored in Monday's 10-2 win over Cleveland.
Analisi
Garcia helped fuel Washington's offensive explosion by doubling in his first plate appearance before launching a two-run homer in the second inning to give the Nationals a commanding early lead. The long ball was his fourth of the season. Entering Monday, Garcia had been batting just .216 with two RBI over his previous 12 games. He's now slashing .268/.292/.427 with 10 doubles, 27 RBI, 20 runs scored and two stolen bases across 171 plate appearances.

Sitting again Thursday
Garcia is out of the starting lineup for the series finale against the Mets on Thursday.
Analisi
Washington will trot out Andres Chaparro at first base for a second straight game as the left-handed-batting Garcia rides the bench against Mets southpaw David Peterson. Despite not receiving the start, Garcia pinch hit for Chaparro in the fifth inning Wednesday when the Mets brought in right-hander Austin Warren and remained in the game, going 1-for-2 with a single.

On bench Wednesday
Garcia is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Mets, Mark Zuckerman of NatsJournal.com reports.
Analisi
Andres Chaparro will get the nod at first base while the left-handed-hitting Garcia takes a seat against Mets southpaw Zach Thornton. Garcia had started in each of the Nationals' last six games, going 4-for-22 with two doubles and two walks over that stretch.
