The Washington Nationals will play host the St. Louis Cardinals. The Cards will send Miles Mikolas to the mound. He is 6-7 with a 5.19 ERA and 1.22 WHIP in 18 outings He is 5-4 with a 4.42 ERA and 1.14 WHIP in ten road starts this year. Mikolas is 3-3 with a 3.97 ERA in eight career appearances versus Washington.. The Nats will send Mitchell Parker to the mound. He is 5-4 with a 3.61 ERA and 1.10 WHIP in his 15 starts. He is 3-0 with a 3.11 ERA and 0.82 WHIP at Nationals Park (six starts). Parker, who has never faced St. Louis, has a 68:18 K:BB ratio in 84.2 total innings. St. Louis has struggled against left-handed pitchers this season. The Cardinals are below .500 on the road this year. The Nationals have won three of their last four games. I have a little more trust in Parker than I do in Mikolas at this point.
