Arizona at Washington

Although the D-Backs are still holding onto first place in the NL West, it is more by default than any of their recent play. They have now played .362 baseball over their last 47 games and that is a very long meaningful stretch. If you project that out to 162 games the D-Backs are a team that is winning just 58 games and losing 104!! If you look past their good start in April, they have been just 2-10 to a -1.5 runline with Dan Haren on the mound and 0-6 on the road. Jason Bergman has deserved a better fate than his 1-6 record, and his recent pitching has been better than even that of Haren's. Bergman has pitched to a 1.80 ERA over his last three starts, so we make the Nats the choice here on the runline.
