Diamondbacks vs Nationals MLB Betting Preview
The Diamondbacks are playing great baseball right now, but this is a tough spot for them.
They had to play a home game on Wednesday before flying to St. Louis for a makeup game on Thursday that ended in the early evening hours, and they then flew to Washington, DC, for this weekend series.
There has to be a little bit of fatigue with this travel schedule in the summer months, and Ketel Marte was also scratched yesterday with an injury.
The Nationals have the more imposing lineup on the whole, and Eduardo Rodriguez got knocked around in his last start.
Give me the Nationals as a surprising home underdog here.
Pick: Nationals ML (+105, BetMGM)
