Anyway you look at this one, the numbers are pretty ugly for the Nationals. Their road futility has led them to a 94-176 mark in their last 270 games. This year they are 6-21. The news doesn't get better however, it gets worse. They are also 9-42 in their last 51 road games when facing a right handed starter. Overall they are now also 15-56 vs. a team with a winning record. To compound those problems they face a Tampa team that is now 76-36 in their last 112 at home and on a 13-4 run at home in their last 17. The Rays are 43-9 in their last 52 as a favorite from -150 to -200. Kind of makes these odds posted here look rather small to me so I'm riding the Rays in this one.
