Werth (shoulder) is out of Tuesday's lineup against the Braves, Dan Kolko of MASN Sports reports.

EDGE Analysis

There was a chance he'd be ready to come back for this contest, but will in fact need at least another day off. He tested his shoulder in the cage and it apparently didn't go well, Chelsea Janes of The Washington Post reports, so he may be slightly worse than day-to-day. Adam Lind and Howie Kendrick will start in left field and right field, respectively.

Werth (shoulder) will not play until Tuesday at the earliest, Jorge Castillo of The Washington Post reports.

EDGE Analysis

Werth's shoulder is still acting up, so the Nats will allow him to rest through Monday's off day before re-evaluating his status. The 38-year-old has logged 28 at-bats since his return from a toe injury in late August, collecting three hits (including a homer) with six strikeouts.

Werth (shoulder) remains out of the lineup Saturday against the Phillies.

EDGE Analysis

Howie Kendrick and Alejandro De Aza will man the corner outfield spots again with Werth still nursing shoulder soreness. The injury was the result of a hit-by-pitch during his rehab assignment, and his condition worsened during his first game back with Washington. With expanded rosters, there's no pressing need for a DL move, but it's uncertain if Werth will be available in any capacity for the remainder of the series.

Werth (shoulder) is out of the lineup Friday against the Phillies, Jorge Castillo of The Washington Post reports.

EDGE Analysis

Werth will sit out again Friday as he continues to deal with a shoulder injury. There's yet to be any indication that he'll need to be placed on the disabled list, so consider Werth day-to-day for now. With Werth out, the Nationals will head into Friday's game with Howie Kendrick, Michael Taylor, and Alejandro De Aza in the outfield.

Werth is not in the lineup for Thursday's game against the Phillies due to a shoulder injury, Jorge Castillo of The Washington Post reports.

EDGE Analysis

Werth's shoulder has been bothering him since he was hit by a pitch during his rehab assignment, and the issue apparently worsened in his first game back from the disabled list, which could help explain his recent struggles (he's just 3-for-28 (.107) in eight games since returning from the DL). The good news is the veteran outfielder doesn't seem too worried about the issue, saying he doesn't expect to miss more than two games because of it.

Werth is out of the lineup Sunday against the Brewers.

EDGE Analysis

Werth has made four straight starts in right field, but has just one base hit over that span. Even with lefty Brent Suter on the hill for the opposing Brewers, Werth will get the day off while Wilmer Difo draws the start in right.

Werth is out of Tuesday's lineup against the Marlins, Jorge Castillo of The Washington Post reports.

EDGE Analysis

A day after coming off the DL having recovered from a toe injury, Werth is back on the pine as the Nationals deploy a Adam Lind in left field, Alejandro De Aza in center field and Wilmer Difo in right. Werth may be given the occasional day off over the season's final month in an effort to make sure he is fresh for October.

Werth went 2-for-4 with a two-run home run and a second run scored in Monday's win over the Marlins.

EDGE Analysis

Seeing his first action with the Nats since June 3, Werth blasted a fourth-inning fastball from Jose Urena into the left-field seats for his ninth homer of the season. The veteran will slot in as the starting right fielder for now, but when Bryce Harper (knee) returns Werth should slide back to left, displacing Howie Kendrick.

Werth (toe) was activated from the 60-day disabled list Monday, Dan Kolko of MASN Sports reports. He is starting in right field and batting seventh against the Marlins.

EDGE Analysis

As expected, Werth is back with the Nationals ahead of Monday's series opener against Miami. Manager Dusty Baker said Werth, .262/.367/.446 with eight homers in 47 games before injuring his toe, will take over starting duties in right field until Bryce Harper (knee) returns from an injury of his own, according to Jamal Collier of MLB.com. Monday will mark his first major-league action since June 3, so while he's set to immediately reenter Washington's starting lineup, the Nationals will likely afford him regular days off as they ease him back into action.

Werth (toe) is expected to be activated prior to Monday's game against the Marlins, Chelsea Janes of The Washington Post reports.

EDGE Analysis

It appears Werth is finally ready to rejoin the Nationals after missing nearly three months with a toe injury. The 38-year-old finished up a six-game rehab stint with Triple-A Syracuse and High-A Potomac on Sunday, going a combined 3-for-13 (.231) with a 4:4 K:BB. He should immediately return to his post as Washington's starting left fielder, but seeing as the Nationals have a healthy lead in the division, they'll likely afford him regular days off as they ease him back into action. Werth had a .262/.367/.446 line with eight homers in 47 games before landing on the shelf.
