Nationals' Daniel Murphy: Remains out Sunday
Murphy (leg) is out of Sunday's lineup against the Pirates, Dan Kolko of the Mid-Atlantic Sports Network reports.
Analysis:
Murphy's absence from the lineup comes as no surprise, as it was announced that he'd be temporarily shut down to deal with a mild glute strain. However, now that the Nationals have clinched the NL East, it's possible they'll be even more patient before having Murphy return to action. He'll be replaced by Wilmer Difo at second base Sunday.
