Washington Nationals vs Colorado Rockies Prediction & Picks - MLB

Prediction published on 6/18/25, 2:55 PM  by Carlos Zabala | Modified on 6/18/25 at 11:00 PM in MLB Picks

After sweeping the Marlins, the Rockies won Game 3 10-1 against the Braves and Games 1 and 2 against the Nationals, winning three straight for the second time this season. Colorado's goal will be to avoid going down in history as the team with the worst record in an MLB season. If they normalize offensive games like Tuesday's, they're on the right track to achieve that goal.

The Rockies won 10-6 in DC against the Nationals in an explosive offensive game where Estrada, Toglia, Goodman, McMahon, Toglia again, Hillard, and Micke Moniak all hit home runs. Colorado hit seven home runs in an offensive game to remember against a Nats team led by Dave Martinez, who moved into the top spot as the most troubled team and, with their 10-game losing streak, have already been caught by the Marlins in the NL East standings.

The Rockies swept the Marlins in Miami and hope to do the same against the Nationals in Washington. The Rockies' 7-homer is followed by a Game 3 pitching duel between Marquez for Colorado and Parker for the Nationals.
