Teams

Washington is 9-2 vs. the Mets this season.  TheNationals have gone 24-4 in New York.

The OVER is 6-2 in the Nationals/Mets series this season.

Picks

Reds/Rockies OVER 9.5

Gotta love this one with the OVER being 6-1-1 in the last 8 meetings. 

The Reds RH Alfredo Simon (12-7, 3.08 ERA) gave up five runs the last time he met Colorado in May.  He has an ERA of 15.00 and a WHIP of 2.667 vs. the Rockies as a result.

Colorado LH Jorge De La Rosa (11-8, 4.34) has allowed four runs in each of his last two starts but has been amazing thus far at home.  He is 2-2 when starting against Cincinnati though with an ERA of 7.64 and a WHIP of 1.924. 

The OVER is 6-0 in Reds last 6 road games with the total set at 9.0-10.5.

Nationals/Mets UNDER 7

The Nationals RH Stephen Strasburg (8-10, 3.68 ERA) will be desperate for a win having suffered four losses in his last five starts.  He is 2-1 when starting against New York with an ERA of 2.70 and a WHIP of 1.000.

The Mets RH Dillon Gee (4-4, 3.54) is 7-3 when starting against Washington with an ERA of 3.23 and a WHIP of 1.159.  He has pitched well in his last two starts but both were no-decisions.

Both pitchers gave up four runs apiece the last time they faced the other’s team but don’t expect that to happen here.
