The Washington Nationals took a thumping yesterday from the National League’s worst team, the Atlanta Braves, but I don’t see that happening again today. The Nats have dominated the Braves, winning 36 of their last 51 meetings and are 7-2 in their last 9 in Atlanta. Joe Ross takes the hill for the Nationals and he is 7-4, with a 3.49 ERA, and a 1.26 WHIP. The Braves counter with Matt Wisler, who is 6-12, with an ERA of 5.00, a WHIP of 1.33, and the Braves are 1-4 in Wisler’s last 5 home starts. Andy Fletcher is calling today’s game and the Braves are 2-6 with Fletcher behind the dish.
Today’s pick:
Washington Nationals
