Nationals' Bryce Harper: Sitting again Sunday

Harper (neck) remains out of the lineup Sunday against the Braves, Mark Zuckerman of MASN Sports reports.

Analysis:

Although his MRI results Saturday came back clean, Harper will miss his sixth consecutive game as a result of neck spasms. Even without any red flags on the MRI results, the Nationals may soon be forced to consider a DL stint if Harper is unable to return to the lineup in the near future. In the meantime, Brian Goodwin will get another start in right field.
