Nationals' Robert Garcia: Placed on paternity list

The Nationals placed Garcia on the paternity list Friday, Andrew Golden of The Washington Post reports.

Garcia is allowed to miss up to three games as he spends time with his expanding family, which would keep him out for the rest of the year. Tanner Rainey (elbow) was reinstated from the 60-day IL in a corresponding move and will take Garcia's place in the bullpen.
