Houston Astros vs Washington Nationals Prediction & Picks - MLB
by Lou Aguila | in MLB Picks
After splitting the first two games, the Houston Astros and the Washington Nationals will gun for no less than a series-clinching win in their last regular-season faceoff on Sunday at National Park. Astros right-handed pitcher Christian Javier (2-0 with a 1.54 ERA and 18 Ks) will make his fifth start this season, facing off against Nationals lefty Mitch Parker (1-0, 3.60 ERA with four Ks). Jose Altuve continues to be the blood and soul of this Astros team that is hitting .271/.340/.420 with 96 runs. Pitching numbers have been disappointing early on as Houston owns a dreadful 5.03 ERA with a 1.49 WHIP and .263 BAA. Meanwhile, the Nationals parade a .233/.308/.381 batting line with 74 runs – which is good for 26th in the majors. Their pitching is also subpar with a 4.37 ERA, 1.44 WHIP and .275 BAA. Left fielder Jesse Winker is batting a team-high .399 while CJ Abrams has the highest home runs (6) and RBIs (12) on the team.Limited Offer. Currently at BetMGM

Our Houston Astros vs Washington Nationals Prediction
Prediction: The Nationals are the home underdogs at +155 entering Game 3 of this inter-conference series. Washington is 3-5 at home this season and 8-11 as underdogs. Although the Astros' road record is far from impressive at 3-6, bookmakers still see them as favorites because of Javier's solid form early this season. The 27-year-old hurler is coming off a strong performance against the Texas Rangers last April 15 where he allowed two runs in seven innings. Our betting pick for Astros vs. Nationals: Pick Astros to win at BetMGM.
