Braves vs. Nationals lineups: April 4

There is nothing quite like a 12:10 pm ET first pitch on a Wednesday and that is what we have waiting for us when the Atlanta Braves and Washington Nationals get together on getaway day. Before the festivities begin, though, it is always important to glance at the lineups that will be deployed and it is doubly interesting given the weirdness that can come together in a situation like this.

Kicking things off is the lineup for the Braves, headlined by a day off for Dansby Swanson.

The timing is slightly curious for the young shortstop, who is swinging an improved bat in recent days.
