Kansas City Royals vs Washington Nationals Prediction & Picks - MLB

 by Lou Aguila | in MLB Picks

The Kansas City Royals will go for a 3-0 sweep of the Washington Nationals on Thursday at Nationals Park. With five games left in their schedule, the Royals only need at least three wins to secure their place in the MLB postseason. They can get closer to their goal this Thursday if they complete a three-game sweep against the Nationals. Kansas City has hit a wall as of late, winning just three of their last 10 games. During this stretch, the Royals have averaged 2.2 runs per game with a .203 batting average. On the positive side, Kansas City pitching staff has posted strong numbers with a 2.97 ERA and .291 OBP. The Nationals have lost their last three games and 2-8 in their last 10 assignments. Washington has batted just .199 with 1.8 runs per game in this span while throwing a 4.38 ERA.

Our Kansas City Royals vs Washington Nationals Prediction

With their playoff hopes on the line, I can’t see the Royals squandering this season-finale vs. the Nationals. The Royals might be performing poorly at the plate, but the Nationals are worse with barely two runs per game. Michael Wacha is just 2-3 with a 3.14 ERA in his last five starts, yet he’s one of the most experienced pitchers on the Royals in high-stake, pressure-packed games. I trust him to deliver the goods for Kansas City, leading them to a win and a series sweep. Our betting prediction for Kansas City Royals vs. Washington Nationals: Back the Royals to cover -1.5 runs, -105, at BetMGM.

Prediction:

 

Royals will cover -1.5 runs

-105
