Nats didn't get there for us last night but we will try them again on Tuesday night. The Mets bullpen is bad and I think the Nats can get there.

David Peterson returned from the IL with his first start of the season last week against the Dodgers. His base numbers of 5 innings and 2 earned runs look pretty good. But a closer look shows a WHIP of 1.60 and an average exit velocity of 93.5 mph. He allowed an 11.1 barrel percentage with a 5.66 xERA.

Trevor Williams is having an outstanding season. A 2.22 ERA and 1.08 WHIP. According to Savant his pitching run value is in the 97th percentile, with his fastball in the 99th percentile. His xERA is a solid 3.19. Williams hasn’t permitted more than three earned runs in any start this season. In his last eight starts he has allowed a total of eight earned runs. Back Washington here tonight in this one.
