The Washington Nationals may have lost one of the best players in the MLB in Bryce Harper, but this team still has a ton of talent and should get back on track in this one. Patrick Corbin had a fairly solid season last year as he posted a 3.15 ERA in Arizona, and he has gotten off to an ideal start during the 2019 season. Washington also holds an advantage with their bats as they have Anthony Rendon, Ryan Zimmerman, and Juan Soto. The Washington Nationals should prevail in their home ballpark against the struggling Giants. Final Score Prediction, Washington Nationals win 5-3.
