Nationals' Juan Soto: Gets holiday breather
Soto is out of the lineup Wednesday against the Red Sox.
Nationals manager Dave Martinez will send two of his regulars -- Soto and Daniel Murphy -- to the bench for rest with the two teams playing a day game after a night game for the series finale. With the lefty-hitting Soto on the pine, Michael Taylor will enter the outfield mix to give the Nationals another right-handed bat to counter Red Sox southpaw Eduardo Rodriguez.
