The Oakland A’s left for the road following a 3-4 home stand capped by a spirited weekend split with the New York Yankees.

Cole Irvin, a left-handed pitcher, will start the game on Tuesday. One of the A’s pitchers who was the most reliable this year is Irvin. He is 0-4 in his previous five starts but holds a respectable ERA of 3.44, permitting 28 hits over 33 innings while striking out 6.55 per nine.

The total went UNDER in 4 of Oakland’s last 5 matches.

Oakland Athletics vs Washington Nationals Predictions 8/30/2022

The Washington Nationals undoubtedly adopted the strategy of demolishing everything before rebuilding it. Over the past two seasons, the team sold almost all of their significant everyday assets, leaving them with the worst record in baseball and a record that is more than 40 games below .500.

The Nationals dropped five of their last seven games overall after losing two of the three games they played against the Cincinnati Reds over the weekend.

On Tuesday, right-hander Erick Fedde will start for the struggling Nats. In terms of innings pitched, ERA, and quality starts this year, Fedde is third on the squad. He posts a dreadful 6.38 ERA and a 0-3 record in his last five starts.

Over that time, 24 innings of work by Fedde saw him surrender 27 hits, including seven home runs.

The total went UNDER in 6 of Washington’s last 7 matches.
The Washington Nationals are 2-5 SU in their last 7 matches.
The total went OVER in 5 of Washington’s last 6 matches against Oakland.

Oakland Athletics vs Washington Nationals. The MLB pick for this game is the Washington Nationals. This season, Cole Irvin’s effectiveness is lower on the road than it is at home, where the foul territory in Oakland is much more forgiving. He posts a 4.88 ERA and a 2-7 road record.

Fedde had some issues this season, but he is far more productive at home. Fedde is 2-4 on the year with a 4.47 ERA at home this year. Fedde allowed more hits than innings pitched while playing on the road, where he is giving up almost an additional run per game.

The ball will be placed into play because Irvin only strikes out five to six batters every nine innings while on the road. The Washington Nationals will win to a predicted score of 6-4.
