Miami at Washington

The Washington Nationals have had their problems this season, and the worst of those problems have been on the road against right-hand pitching. The Nats consequently, find themselves against righthand pitching quite frequently. Today, they find themselves in a much more favorable position playing at home vs. a left-hand starter.  They have not lost a home game since June 24 against a lefty pitcher - and that was Jon Lester of the Red Sox. Their last 15 games at home have seen them at 9-6, included in those 15 games was a three-game sweep of these same Florida Marlins they face tonight. The Marlins come in at just 1-4 in their last five on the road. I like Washington in this one.
