Taylor went 2-for-4 Tuesday with a run scored, an RBI and his eighth stolen base of the season. The rookie appears to be getting comfortable in left field, slashing .290/.324/.362 in 69 June at-bats with a home run and four steals. Taylor's even reined in his strikeout rate a little this month. Until Jayson Werth returns from his wrist injury Taylor should continue to get regular at-bats, and he could be worth picking up in shallower leagues if you need help in SBs.

Taylor entered Wednesday's game against the Yankees as a defensive replacement and ended up socking a two-run homer in the eighth inning. Clint Robinson started in left field, but was replace by Taylor for defensive reasons in the seventh inning. Of course, Robinson hasn't provided more offense than Taylor in the first place -- a good argument for the high-upside youngster to see everyday playing time while Jayson Werth is on the DL. Of course, manager Matt Williams may not see it that way.

Taylor is out of the lineup Wednesday, MASN's Dan Kolko reports. Denard Span returned to the lineup, and Clint Robinson will get the start in left field. Taylor is still the third Nationals outfielder worth using in fantasy with Jayson Werth out, but he won't be in the lineup every day.

Taylor was added to Tuesday's starting lineup in place of Denard Span (back), Dan Kolko of MASN Sports reports. Span was set to start Tuesday's game in center field, but the Nationals decided to scratch him after posting their original lineup, and it will now be Taylor manning center field Tuesday night. He will bat ninth against Yankees starter Masahiro Tanaka.

Taylor went 3-for-4 with a steal Thursday against the Cubs. Unfortunately, he was able to neither drive in nor score any runs. But Taylor's been hitting when he gets in the lineup lately, and his power-speed combo should at least serve NL-only owners well while he's getting semi-consistent time in the Washington outfield.

Taylor is not in the lineup for Wednesday's game against the Blue Jays, James Wagner of the Washington Post reports. Taylor will be held out Wednesday after starting each of the last five games. He tallied four hits and five RBI over those five games, so he figures to be back in the lineup for the Nationals' next game Thursday.

Taylor went 1-for-3 Saturday with a three-run home run, his fourth blast of the season. He's slashing just .216/.273/.392 on the year, but Taylor is still capable of taking a mistake pitch for a long ride. The rookie's defense may give him a slight edge for playing time in left field while Jayson Werth (wrist) is out of action, but don't expect a lot of production from him.

Taylor was a late addition to the Nationals' lineup Saturday. Bryce Harper was scratched with a sore back so Clint Robinson will move to right field and Taylor will play left field and hit eighth. Haprer's injury does not appear to be serious, but Taylor will still get plenty of starts with Jayson Werth out.

Taylor is out of the lineup Saturday. He is hitless in his last four games and is hitting just .214 on the season. With Jayson Werth out for an extended period of time Taylor should get his fair share of starts in left field, but he has not hit enough to warrant being in the lineup every day. Clint Robinson will get the start and hit sixth Saturday.

Taylor is out of the lineup Friday, the Washington Post's Chelsea Janes reports. He has been starting on a regular basis with Jayson Werth out, but has just one hit in his last four starts. Clint Robinson will get the start in left field Friday.
