The Cincinnati Reds will go against the Washington Nationals in MLB action in Nationals Park, DC, on Friday, August 26, 2022, at 7:05 PM ET. The Reds’ 10-game road trip continues.

 

They started off in Pittsburgh by capturing two of three matches while scoring an amazing 23 runs in those three games, but they soon lost three of four games against the hot Phillies squad.

 

The Reds are 3-7 in their previous ten games. The Reds are currently averaging 4.27 runs per game, which places them 19th nationally. With a 5.04-team ERA, the pitching staff ranks 28th in the major leagues.

 

Mike Minor will take the mound for the Reds in this contest. Minor suffered yet another defeat in his most recent outing against the Pirates, surrendering five runs in 5.2 innings before being saved by the offense and taking the victory.

 

The southpaw enters with a 2.-10 record in 73 innings pitched and a 6.44 ERA, and a 1.61 WHIP. He continues to struggle in most of his appearances. Minor is 3-4 with a 4.91 ERA in 62.1 career innings and gave up six runs in their lone match this season.

Cincinnati Reds vs Washington Nationals Predictions 8/26/2022

 

After finishing 2-4 on a six-game road trip, the Nationals are back at home. In the four-game series in San Diego, they played hard, capturing the first two games and dropping the following two matches by only one run.

 

They then won one of their two subsequent matches in Seattle. Four of the Nats’ previous five home matches ended in losses.

 

The Nationals rank 26th overall with a 3.73 run average. The pitching staff’s 5.12 collective ERA ranks them 29th overall.

 

On Friday, Cade Cavalli will mark his MLB debut. The Nationals’ best pitching prospect, Cavalli, is one to watch in the future.

 

In 97 innings of play, the rookie right-hander had a respectable Triple-A season with a 3.71 ERA and 1.18 WHIP. Cavalli struck out 104 times. He was only a minor league pitcher for two years.

 

  • The total went UNDER in 6 of Washington’s previous 7 matches. 
  • The Washington Nationals are 6-14 SU in their last 20 matches. 
  • The total went OVER in 5 of the Nationals’ last 7 matches against Cincinnati.

Cincinnati Reds vs Washington Nationals. The MLB pick for this game is the Washington Nationals.

 

When Mike Minor is pitching, it’s always a smart idea to back the underdog Reds because they dropped four straight games. He keeps stumbling, with a dismal 6.75 ERA this month, and seldom ever has a strong performance. His statistics are worse on the road when his awful ERA is 6.54.

 

Cade Cavalli, the Nationals’ top pitching prospect, is also starting for them. He has the potential to be an ace, and both he and the rest of the team are excited about his debut.

 

This year, the Nats excelled against the Reds, capturing three of the four encounters. The Nationals defeated the Reds four times this season, scoring 24 runs; they should win this game as well.

 

The Washington Nationals will win to a predicted score of 7-3.
