Fitzgerald 1-for-3 with a walk and two stolen bases in Saturday's 3-1 win over the Tigers.

Fitzgerald stole second and third in the seventh inning and has two multi-steal games in his past three contests after swiping just one base in July. The 26-year-old has remained scorching in August, going 13-for-37 with three home runs, five thefts and five multi-hit efforts across nine games. For the year, he is hitting .313 with 12 homers and 12 steals in just 176 plate appearances.

Rojas isn't in the Dodgers' lineup for Saturday's game against the Pirates.

Rojas has gone 2-for-8 with two RBI since returning from the injured list Wednesday, and he'll get a chance to rest Saturday while Nick Ahmed starts at shortstop and bats ninth.

Nunez (lower body) is starting at shortstop and batting ninth in Saturday's contest against the Angels, Spencer Nusbaum of The Washington Post reports.

Nunez left Friday's game due to cramps, finishing the contest 0-for-3 with two strikeouts. He won't miss any time, however, and he'll face off against Halos right-hander Griffin Canning in Saturday's tilt.

Winn (illness) is not in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Royals, Jeff Jones of the Belleville News-Democrat reports.

Brandon Crawford is starting at shortstop Saturday and batting ninth with Winn fighting off a cold, per Jones. With the Cardinals off Sunday, Winn should return for Monday's series opener against the Reds. Since the All-Star break, Winn is slashing .258/.320/.449 with four home runs and eight RBI across 96 plate appearances.

Abrams (back) is not in the starting lineup for Saturday's game against the Angels, Spencer Nusbaum of The Washington Post reports.

Abrams told reporters Saturday that he first felt his back issues flare up Thursday during rain delays, which led to his removal from Friday's lineup, per Bobby Blanco of MASNSports.com. With the Nationals scheduled for an off day Monday, Abrams will be held out for the weekend series against the Angels and aim to return Tuesday for the series opener against the Orioles. The 23-year-old has struggled from the plate since the All-Star break and is slashing .165/.212/.266 with nine runs scored, two home runs and 11 RBI across 83 plate appearances.

Cruz went 3-for-5 with a solo home run, a double and an additional RBI in Friday's 9-5 loss to the Dodgers.

Cruz came up a triple shy of the cycle, logging his second three-hit game in a row since returning from an illness. The shortstop has gone 12-for-24 (.500) with three extra-base hits over six contests in August. Cruz is up to a .262/.315/.473 slash line with a career-high 18 homers, 59 RBI, 54 runs scored, 24 doubles and 11 stolen bases over 103 games this season.

Rojas went 1-for-4 with an RBI and a stolen base in Friday's 9-5 win over the Pirates.

David Vassegh of AM 570 LA Sports reported Friday that Mookie Betts (hand) will shift to right field when he returns Monday, so Rojas will remain in competition with Nick Ahmed and Amed Rosario for playing time at shortstop. Rojas has started two straight games since he returned from the injured list himself after missing two weeks with a forearm injury. For the season, Rojas has been a steady batter, hitting .270 with a .713 OPS, three home runs, 23 RBI, 22 runs scored, six steals and 17 doubles over 215 plate appearances. As long as he can avoid a slump, Rojas appears to be in line for the bulk of the action at shortstop.

Adames went 1-for-4 with a three-run homer in Friday's 8-3 victory over Cincinnati.

The Milwaukee shortstop opened the game's scoring with a 391-foot blast off Carson Spiers in the first frame, Adames' second consecutive game with a homer. This marks his sixth homer since the All-Star break as he's hitting .285 (20-for-70) with 13 runs scored and 12 RBI over his last 18 games. Overall, the 28-year-old sports a .252/.335/.457 slash line with 65 runs scored and 79 RBI across 499 plate appearances.

Nunez exited Friday's game against the Angels due to cramps, Andrew Golden of The Washington Post reports.

Nunez was able to limp off the field after laying down a sacrifice bunt in the 10th inning, and the Nationals don't seem to be very concerned about his availability. The 23-year-old went 0-for-3 with two strikeouts while filling in for CJ Abrams, who was scratched from the lineup due to back spasms.

Abrams was scratched from the lineup ahead of Friday's game against the Angels due to back spasms, Andrew Golden of The Washington Post reports.

Abrams' injury was enough to keep him from playing Friday, but the team doesn't expect it to lead to an extended absence. Nasim Nunez started at shortstop instead Friday but left the game early due to cramping, creating uncertainty over who might get the nod at the position Saturday.
