Our Washington Nationals vs Cincinnati Reds Prediction
Fearless Forecast: Reds take another comfortable win over the Nats.
I don’t see the Reds slowing down. Cincinnati has a chance to earn another comfortable win, covering a -1.5 run spread in the process, with Nick Lodolo set to start this Saturday. Lodolo is coming off a scintillating start vs. the Rockies, blanking Colorado through 7 innings with 9 strikeouts. Trevor Williams, who allowed five runs in a 5-19 loss to the Mets on April 28, has surrendered an average of 4.7 runs per game over his last three starts vs. Cincinnati. Williams cannot allow the Reds to build an early lead since only a few MLB teams can outscore Cincinnati in the end game. The Reds' bullpen is throwing a 2.18 ERA this season. Our betting prediction for the Cincinnati Reds vs. Washington Nationals: Reds -1.5 Runs
