Pittsburgh at Washington

The Pirates are the only 5-0 team in MLB right now, doing it all on the road. Pittsburgh's bats have taken charge early in the season producing 38 runs, or better than 7 per contest. Washington finished last year with their fourth straight losing season, and prospects to turn that around this year are not good. The Nats have started at 1-3 and the pitching has been awful. The combination of an electric Pirate lineup and a Washington pitching staff allowing seven runs per game allows for a lot of cushion on this pick. Make the play on Pittsburgh.
