Chaparro is not in the lineup for Thursday's contest against the Rockies, Andrew Golden of The Washington Post reports.
Chaparro will get his first day off since being called up from Triple-A Rochester on Aug. 13, as he had started each of the last eight games. Joey Gallo will handle first base for the Nationals, while Juan Yepez will serve as the designated hitter.
