Our Washington Nationals vs Kansas City Royals Prediction
Red-hot offense powers the Nationals to a large win over the Royals.
Washington has scored 36 runs in a span of five games, 18 of which came in the last two games against the Mariners.
The Royals are making a gamble by starting a struggling Mitch Spence, who has given up 19 earned runs across his last three starts. Kansas’ bullpen has also been unreliable, with a 5.47 ERA over the last five games.
Andrew Alvarez also poses a big problem for the Royals. Kansas City is averaging 3.5 runs per game against left-handed pitchers this season. Alvarez has not allowed more than two runs in his last three starts.
Our betting prediction for the Washington Nationals vs. the Kansas City Royals: The Nationals -1.5 runs
