Result:
WIN

Washington is home and playing well, winning two of three and three of five. The Nationals are 41-18 as chalk and 24-11 at home against a team with a losing record. Jordan Zimmermann (2-1, 3.59 ERA) is a fine veteran with a sizzling 42-8 strikeout to walk ratio. The Nationals are 22-8 in Zimmermann's last 30 home starts. The fourth place New York Mets are in town with a weak offense, 29th in batting, 25th in on-base percentage, and 30th in slugging. The Mets are on a 5-11 run and 2-6 against the National League East. It's hard to trust young Zack Wheeler (1-3, 4.52 ERA), who has walked 24 in 43+ innings along with 46 hits allowed! Wheeler was terrible against the Yankees on Tuesday, walking a season-high six batters and giving up five earned runs on seven hits in just four-and-a-third innings. The Mets are 14-37 in the last 51 meetings, and the Nationals are 7-3 in Zimmermann's last 10 starts vs. the Mets. Play Washington.
