Result: Win
This is an 8* play on the Washington Nationals.

Just like our play on the Brewers today, we think this is a much bigger mismatch on the mound than what the oddsmakers are trying to lead us to believe:

Stephen Strasburg: He's 7-2 with a 3.27 ERA. Strasburg comes in off his worst start of the year against Atlanta on Monday, earning a fortunate no-decision after giving up six runs off seven hits and a walk while striking out ten over five innings in the eventual 11-10 setback. The silver-lining was that it was his third double-digit strikeout performance over his last five starts.

Seth Lugo: He's 1-0 with a 1.29 ERA. Lugo gave up one run off six hits in a win over the Braves in his season debut on Sunday. Lugo was dominant in eight starts last year with a 2.67 ERA and 1.09 WHIP and while he did look good in his first start this season, we still think that the book is out on the 27 year old.

The bottom line: Strasburg is 5-1 with a 2.53 ERA on the road this year. The Nationals are clearly a stiff test for Lugo and we expect some predictable regression in his second start of the season. Lay the price with confidence, play on WASHINGTON.
