San Francisco at Washington

April 19, 2026
img1:35 PM Eastern

Miles Mikolas is pitching for Washington today. All aboard the fade train. There may not be a worst starting pitcher in the majors than Mikolas, who is 0-3 with an 11.49 ERA and 2.17 WHIP. The Nationals have the second highest team ERA in the majors and are the second worst fielding team in the league. They also have the third highest bullpen ERA. No amount of hitting can make up for this. Washington is giving up an average of 7.4 runs in its last seven games. The Giants have won three in a row, including the first two games of this series scoring a combined 17 runs against Washington. San Francisco starter Robbie Ray is off to a strong start with a 2.42 ERA and 1.03 WHIP. He has 24 strikeouts in 22.1 innings. Take the Giants.
