10* EVENING MLB GHOST PEPPER ANNIHILATION >>> INSANE 24-6 MLB RUN
(MLB) Washington vs. Milwaukee,
Money Line: -114.00 Washington (Away)
Result: Loss
Money Line: -114.00 Washington (Away)
Result: Loss
The set-up: Neither of these usually "rock steady" starters has looked great this year, but after getting swept in St. Louis, I think that Max Scherzer and the hungry visiting side offer great value to take Game 1 vs. the struggling Jhoulys Chacin and the Milwaukee Brewers.
The pitchers: Scherzer (1-4, 4.08 ERA) is 2-2 with a 2.40 ERA in eight career starts vs. the Brewers.
Chacin (3-3, 5.24) has given up 27 hits and 18 walks so far this year. He's had plenty of success against the Nationals as well in the past, but that was then and this is now.
The pick: Despite the recent slide, note that Washington is still 60-42 in its last 102 on the road, while Milwaukee is just 25-35 (-5.3 units) in it last 60 as a home underdog. I think the sharp money is on Scherzer. Lay the short price!
