The Los Angeles Dodgers will host the Washington Nationals for their series finale this Wednesday from Dodger Stadium. Los Angeles took Game two after pulling away late, 9-3. 

Nationals Betting Preview

Washington moved to 23-32 after falling to Los Angeles. The Nationals have now dropped three straight, and they’ll look to avoid feeling the brooms here in Game three. The Washington offense is scoring 3.42 runs per Game, while batting .267, with a .330 on-base percentage. The pitching staff carries a 4.56 ERA, with a 1.44 WHIP. Joey Meneses has recorded hits in seven of the last ten Games, and he leads the Nats in batting (.294) and RBI (28). Lane Thomas has a hit in twelve straight Games, and he leads the team in runs scored (34). 

Patrick Corbin (4-5, 4.88 ERA, 40 Ks) will make the road start for Washington. The veteran pitcher reverted back to his old ways in Kansas City last weekend, allowing six runs in 6.1 innings pitched, but he somehow earned his third straight winning decision. Corbin has been coNFLicting this season, quietly returning to form after a year of dismay, but his outing last week was a step back.

Dodgers Betting Preview

Los Angeles moved to 34-22 after defeating Washington. The Dodgers are within striking distance of their third sweep this month, and they’ll look to complete things Wednesday. The Los Angeles offense is scoring 5.04 runs per Game, while batting .231, with a .326 on-base percentage. The pitching staff carries a 4.24 ERA, with a 1.27 WHIP. Freddie Freeman plated a pair of runs in the Game one victory, and he’s up to team-leads in BA (.333), hits (73) and runs (45). J.D. Martinez has homered in back-to-back Games, and he’s posting splits of .276/11/36. Max Muncy has also gone yard in consecutive Games, and he leads LAD in homers (17) and RBI (38). 

Noah Syndergaard (1-4, 6.27 ERA, 33 Ks) will get the ball for Los Angeles. The eighth-year righty had a tough time in Tampa last week, giving up six runs in six innings and taking his fourth losing decision of the season. Thor hasn’t found much success in LA with the Dodgers or Angels, and he’ll look to turn things around here against the Nats.

Washington vs Los Angeles Trends

Washington is 34-21 against the spread this season, with a 24-28-3 O/U record. LA Dodgers are 33-23 ATS this year, with a 32-23-1 over/under record.

Corey’s Free Pick

Los Angeles looks like they’re about to close the month how they opened it, and that is with a sweep of a NL East foe. Now with Noah Syndergaard set to go for LAD, there are multiple angles here. The Nats will be sending Patrick Corbin out, who we all know shows little vulnerability, and that could reflect on the scoreboard. Both lineups should be able to find production off of Corbin and Thor respectively, and I like the total as an alternate route to the Dodgers covering here. Los Angeles should still win this game, but give the Over a look, as neither pitcher has been at their sharpest this season.
