Marlins' Giancarlo Stanton: Out of Saturday's lineup

Stanton is not in Saturday's lineup against the Nationals, MLB.com's Joe Frisaro reports.

Analysis:

The Marlins will rest several regulars as they play out the string against the Nationals. Jeff Francoeur will start in right field and hit fifth. Stanton has now sat out two games in a row, and it would not come as a big surprise if he was also absent from Sunday's lineup as he is fairly banged up at this point in the season.
