The Phillies impressed against the Mets winning 3 of 4 against a great team. Now they face the worst team in the NL. Brett Myers has struggled of late but he still has a 3.66 home ERA and a winning record against the Nationals. Philly's bats are hot (6.7 runs per game over their last seven) while Washington's are not (3.6 per game over same span). Philly has a slight edge in every important stat here: starting pitching, bullpen play and offense and they are at home and in need of wins to make the playoffs. Philadelphia here.
