Washington at New York

The Washington Nationals are getting a glimpse of what they could be like in the future. They started at rock bottom and are working their way back. The Nats have gone 4-4 in their last eight, which is progress, and they are 3-1 on the current road trip, shocking the Mets last night 5-0. The Washington pitching over its last five games has allowed just 14 total runs. I should note all three of those wins came as a dog of +185 or more. The Mets seemed to be on their way to a good season, but have now lost four in a row. The Mets pitching has allowed 5+ runs in their last three games. The Mets are not playing well right now, and the Nats are an energized young team for the moment. Make the play on Washington.
