WASHINGTON NATIONALS -105
Not often you get Scherzer at this price, and I get it, their facing the Cubs in Chicago. But I think the pitching matchup favors the Nats here with Max rounding into form. The Cubs took game 1 yesterday, but prior to that, Washington had taken 5 of 6 on the road trip in St Louis and Kansas City... not too shabby. Also, with Hammel and Jake the Snake looming this weekend, the Nats need to win with Scherzer to at least guarantee they don't get swept here. Risky going against the Cubs at home, but I will side with the better pitcher today.
