A full 15-game MLB slate is scheduled for Tuesday, one of which will include a National League matchup between the Washington Nationals and the Colorado Rockies. Let’s take a look at the match statistics and predictions for this game between the Nationals and the Rockies.
Colorado enters this game as one of the worst teams in the entire league, and as a result is currently in last place in the National League West division. The Rockies are scheduled to start Mason Adams in Game 2 of this series. Adams is a recent call-up from the Minor Leagues, meaning this will be his MLB debut.
As for Washington, they enter this game well under .500 and are currently in fourth place in the National League East division. Starting this game for the Nationals will be Andrew Alvarez, who has a record of 2-5 and an ERA of 3.60. Alvarez has not performed well at home this season, suggesting that even the Rockies’ offense will be able to have some success.

Our Washington Nationals vs Colorado Rockies Prediction
The Nationals are the heavy favorite in this game; however, the over looks to be the best betting option. This goes directly to the fact that Adams, for the Rockies, has never pitched at the major league level. There is also the fact that Alvarez, for the Nationals, has not been very consistent. In fact, Alvarez has made 10 home appearances (four starts), in which he has allowed 19 earned runs over 40.1 innings.
While both of these teams have poor records, they have also both shown flashes of being competent offensively all season. Because of this, our Washington Nationals vs Colorado Rockies prediction is: Over 8.5 Total Runs.
