In my opinion, the wrong team is favored. Both teams are currently in 3rd place in their respective divisions. The Nationals have been playing well recently, but their team batting average is .235 with a run differential of -9, compared to the Diamondbacks' .251 batting average and +3 run differential this season.
Arizona's Slade Cecconi will be on the mound, aiming to recover from a poor performance in which he lasted only three innings, allowing ten hits and two home runs. However, he has performed relatively better on the road, posting a 4.02 ERA in five starts, with opponents hitting .226 against him. On the other hand, Jake Irvin's stats appear better on paper, but he is just 1-4 in his last five starts this year.
Despite SportsInsights reporting that 78% of the tickets and money are on the Nationals, making them a huge public favorite, I'm looking to go against this trend and back the Diamondbacks tonight. Arizona is 5-0 straight up in its last five road games against Washington. Expect the Diamondbacks to win this game convincingly.
