This is a 1* Free Play on the UNDER in Braves/Nationals.
A couple of competent starters go head-to-head on Monday night and in our opinion, all signs point to a lower-scoring pitchers duel:
Mike Foltynewicz: He's 4-5 with a 3.48 ERA. Foltynewicz comes in on top form, most recently holding the Phillies scoreless over seven innings, giving up just four hits and two walks while striking out four. That's now back-to-back seven frame shutout performances for the crafty right-hander. Foltynewicz has been far from perfect this season, but he's performing better now than at any other time and note that he does own a very respectable 3.03 ERA on the road this year.
Stephen Strasburg: He's 7-2 with a 2.80 ERA. Strasburg most recently gave up two runs (one earned) off three hits and one walk to go along with eight K's over six innings in an unfortunate loss against the Dodgers on Wednesday. Clayton Kershaw earned the win for LA. Strasburg had won four straight outings previous to that and note that it was the seventh time this year that he's struck out at least eight batters.
The bottom line: Strasburg has been tough at home as well, going 2-1 with a 3.18 ERA. Note that ATL has seen the total go UNDER the number in both games this season as a road dog in the +175 to +250 range, while Washington has seen the total go UNDER the number in six of seven this season as a home fav in the -175 to -250 range. Consider a second look at the UNDER in this one.
