San Francisco Giants at Washington Nationals

Listen, the Giants have the better record at 29-21 and are holding their own on the road at 12-12, while the Nationals are below .500 both overall and at home. The starting pitching matchup isn’t scary either way, but Roupp’s 4.11 ERA and 1.43 WHIP give the Giants enough of a shot against Gore’s 3.67 ERA and 1.30 WHIP. San Fran’s lineup is just a hair deeper, and with both teams treading water lately, I’ll ride with the proven squad—if you’ve got the guts to back the smarter side, Giants ML is the ticket.
