Washington Nationals vs Colorado Rockies 4/7/2023 Picks

Washington Nationals vs Colorado Rockies 4/7/2023 Picks Predictions Previews

The Washington Nationals will go against the Colorado Rockies in MLB action in Coors Field, Colorado, on Friday, April 7, 2023, at 8:40 PM ET.

With one victory and a series sweep already in their belts, Nationals supporters had a difficult time with the 2023 campaign in Washington.

Will the Nationals make progress this year, or will the nation’s capital witness yet another run of subpar games? The Nationals rank 28th in terms of runs scored per game (2.83), and they hit.233 with a.618 OPS (27th).

In their first six matches, they hit two home runs and stole one base. With zero quality starts over that time, the Washington pitching staff amassed a 5.67 ERA (25th) and a 1.43 WHIP (19th).

There is no arguing that the MLB’s worst lineups belong to the Nationals. That’s understandable given that Max Scherzer, Trea Turner, and Juan Soto were all dealt in back-to-back seasons.

But with talented young players like Keibert Ruiz, CJ Abrams, Robert Hassell, James Wood, and Elijah Green in the system, the future might be bright.

For the time being, Nats supporters will have to watch as their club goes through growing pains, led by Abrams, Ruiz, Dominic Smith, Joey Meneses, and Victor Robles.

The Washington Nationals are 1-11 SU in their last 12 matches.
Washington is 1-6 SU in their last 7 matches on the road.
The Nationals are 1-5 SU in their last 6 matches when playing on the road against Colorado.

Washington Nationals vs Colorado Rockies Predictions 4/7/2023

Colorado began the season with two unexpected victories over San Diego, a team that was vying for the division crown, but it was unable to build on the momentum these victories gave it.

Colorado hits.239 (18th) and averages 3.67 runs per game (22nd), with a.688 OPS (20th).

This year, it ranks 18th with six home runs and 23rd with two stolen bases. With three solid starts, the Rockies’ pitching staff has a 5.76 ERA (26th) and 1.38 WHIP (17th).

The Rockies seem to be a squad that is split 50/50. Although they still have some star power, it is far from enough to compete with San Diego and Los Angeles.

Kris Bryant playing the entire season would at least be encouraging after the 31-year-old participated in only 42 games the previous year.

Charlie Blackmon’s regular output would also be helpful after three unproductive years.

Ryan McMahon and Brendan Rodgers, two strong young infielders who will be essential to Colorado’s success, are now most likely out for the remainder of the season.

The total went UNDER in 8 of Colorado’s last 11 matches.
The Colorado Rockies are 1-4 SU in their last 5 matches.
The total went OVER in 6 of Colorado’s last 9 matches against Washington.

Washington Nationals vs Colorado Rockies. The MLB pick for this game is the Colorado Rockies.

The Nationals are 1-6 in their past seven games during game two of a series, and they are 1-8 in their last nine games when the total is 11.0 or greater.

Colorado has the value to win at home by a large margin at +140. Gore performed admirably in his first start of the 2023 campaign, but he still has a ways to go before he can be trusted to turn in quality starts.

He’ll be OK in his second start against a Nationals team that lacks experience, and the bullpen will be capable once he’s removed.

The Rockies will be relieved to play a beatable team in Washington at home after facing tough opposition to start the season.

On Friday night, place a wager on them to win by more than one run. Colorado will win to a predicted score of 8-4
