Nationals' Daniel Murphy: Scratched from Friday's lineup
Murphy was scratched from Friday's lineup with general leg soreness, Mark Zuckerman of MASNsports.com reports.
Analysis:
Clint Robinson is now slated to man first base and bat eighth against lefty Francisco Liriano. This is seemingly a new issue for Murphy -- he played in the All-Star Game after all, going 2-for-3 -- and his availability for the rest of the weekend is up in the air.
