The visitors turn to veteran Ryan Vogelsong (6-6, 4.19 ERA) who was shelled for four runs in Tuesday's 5-3 loss to the Fish; Vogelsong is now just 4-4 with a ballooned 5.40 ERA on the road this season (also note that Vogelsong owns a pedestrian 4.29 ERA in all "night" games). The home side counters with Jordan Zimmermann (6-5, 3.16 ERA) who was dominating in Tuesday's 6-1 win over the Braves, not allowing a single run over 7 2/3's innings of work; note that Zimmermann has now given up a total of three runs over his last 22 2/3's innings of work and he has to be feeling pretty confident that he can keep the momentum rolling today as he's posted a highly respectable 2.39 ERA at home so far this season. Recent performance plays a part in my MLB handicapping process, I'm going to give Zimmermann the clear nod in this match-up, if you don't mind laying some juice for a high percentage shot at a winner, then you should definitely take a second look at the NATIONALS in this one.
