Washington at Miami

The Marlins have not been taking care of business at home as they are just 3-6 in their last nine. Last night they looked to be a breeze behind Josh Johnson, the ace of their staff, but ended up dropping a 5-3 decision to the Nats. The Nats have had a way of sneaking up on teams, just when you least expect it as they took two from the Yankees at the Stadium, and closed the Phillies series on the road with a win. It leaves this team winning two straight. When they face an opponent that allowed 5+ runs in their last game, the Nats have been a very good 11-5. Anibel Sanchez has not been one to answer that call, as the Marlins are now 0-7 when he takes the mound after allowing five in the previous game. It looks ugly, but the signs and value are there, and I'll go with the Nats in this one.
