José Tena: Breaking News

Heading to bench Sunday

Tena is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Marlins. Tena had started in five of the Nationals' previous six games, but he'll hit the bench Sunday while CJ Abrams gets a day off from playing shortstop but remains in the lineup as Washington's designated hitter. While Washington may continue to hold him out against left-handed pitching, Tena should start versus right-handers more often than not while he's maintained a .288/.338/.485 slash line (130 wRC+) over 71 plate appearances against them this season.

Swats second homer

Tena went 2-for-5 with a double, a home run and two RBI in Wednesday's win over the Twins. The 25-year-old utility player took Luis Garcia deep in the eighth inning to cap off a 15-2 rout. It was Tena's second long ball of the season, and he's been scorching hot of late -- he's delivered six hits in the last four games and five of them (three doubles, a triple and a homer) have gone for extra bases, boosting his slash line on the season to .297/.348/.484 in 69 plate appearances with 10 RBI and 11 runs.

On bench for fifth straight

Tena is out of the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Mets. The left-handed-hitting Tena will hit the bench for the fifth game in a row, though the Nationals have faced four left-handed starters during that stretch. Even so, Tena looks like he might have to settle for a part-time role against right-handed pitching, with Jorbit Vivas having built a case for earning more opportunities.
