Free Betting Pick: Washington Nationals -125
The Washington Nationals have dominated the New York Mets on the road as of recent especially when Stephen Strasburg is on the mound as they have won 10 of their last 11 meetings. The Washington Nationals have struggled terribly in the post Bryce Harper era, but they should be able to climb themselves out of the top of the NL East especially with a pitcher like Strasburg. The New York Mets are pitching Matz who is having a fairly good season, but I don’t trust him to win a pitching duel against one of the better pitchers in the NL. Final Score Prediction, Washington Nationals win 5-4.
