Cincinnati at Washington

The Washington Nationals have started strong, as they are out of the gate at 5-2 through their first seven games. The offense has been held in check, but they have gotten brilliant pitching, allowing just 17 runs in the seven games. Jordan Zimmerman deserved a better fate off a gem in his 2012 debut but the Nats lost, and he has just three wins to show for his last 12 starts, so he can be had here by a solid Reds offense. Arroyo is an experienced pitcher, and can handle the road where the Reds are 7-3 in his last 10 road starts. The Nationals have imploded at home as a favorite of -110 to -150, where they tasted victory just one time in their last eight tries. Make the play on Cincinnati.
