Today we are on the Washington/Philadelphia game to go OVER 9.5.  5 of 6 games in this series have gone OVER the total this season.  Oddly enough, none of those games went over the current total of 9.5.  That won’t stop us here though.

The Nationals are red hot right now and closing in on the Atlanta Braves to lead the division.  Washington has scored 8 or more points in three of their last four games.  In 3 of their last 8 they scored 10 or more points.

Philadelphia has scored 6 or more points in 7 of their last 10 games.  The Over is 17-5 in Philadelphia's last 22 overall.

Dan Haren is 0-3 against Philadelphia with an ERA of 5.82 and a WHIP of 1.353.  His team's record is 0-6 in these starts. The UNDER is 1-4.   Washington is 0-8 in Haren's last 8 starts.

John Lannan is 1-3 this season for Philadelphia with a 5.15 ERA.  He has only lasted beyond 5 innings once.  He gave up 4 runs and 11 hits his last time at the mound against Pittsburgh.

The Over is 9-2 in Nationals last 11 games as a road favorite.

We gotta try and ride out the OVER for this four-game series based on current season trends

Baseball News

Chris Paddack Player Prop Bets

Paddack recorded 10 strikeouts over seven shutout innings on Monday in a win over the White Sox. Prior to that start, Paddack was obliterated by the Orioles, allowing nine runs on 12 hits in 5 1/3 innings.

Zach Eflin Player Prop Bets

Zach Eflin has great value in fantasy leagues for the April 26 game against the lowly Chicago White Sox.  Betting on Eflin and the Tampa Bay Rays might make sense if not for the -210 price tag.

Trevor Williams Player Prop Bets

The Nats Trevor Williams held the Astros to one run with four strikeouts across six innings in a no-decision on Saturday.  And the betting public was eating him up at a near 80% clip.
