CJ Abrams News: Receiving rare day off

Abrams is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Rangers, Spencer Nusbaum of The Washington Post reports.

Abrams started 40 straight games after recovering from a hip injury in late April, but he has a .127/.213/.182 slash line over his last 14 contests and will get a couple days to reset ahead of Tuesday's series opener versus the Mets. Nasim Nunez will take over at shortstop and bat ninth Sunday.
