Giants vs Nationals Prediction
The Giants are coming off a hell of a week, which includes an extra-innings win over the Cubs on Sunday night. Webb is also finding his form, which includes allowing 4 hits and 1 run in his last 11.1 innings. Webb has also been fantastic throughout his career at Oracle. Mikolas hasn’t looked sharp this season with a 6.39 ERA, 1.40 WHIP, and a .279 batting average allowed. The Nationals and the plus money have value considering they continue to win more than expected, but the Giants and the low price with their ace on the mound is where I want to be given their current form.
