Cincinnati Reds vs Washington Nationals Predictions 8/28/2022

Since the beginning of the season, Washington’s chances of making the playoffs this year were basically nonexistent. The supporter base was only anticipating what the front management would decide to do with Juan Soto after he declined the team’s offer of an extension.

The squad is now looking ahead to the future after Soto was ultimately moved ahead of the deadline. But over the past two weeks, Washington was putting up a fight, going 4-6 in a 10-game period, with five of the six defeats coming by two runs or less.

The Nationals not only have the poorest record in the National League but also in the whole league.

Patrick Corbin, a left-handed pitcher, will start this match for Washington. Last Sunday against the Padres, he pitched 5.1 innings and gave up just two runs on nine hits and two walks.

This was an improvement over the seven previous outings in which he gave up at least four runs. Through 121.2 innings, Corbin has a 6.81 ERA and 1.81 WHIP, which is not excellent.

The total went UNDER in 5 of Washington’s previous 6 matches.
The Washington Nationals are 1-5 SU in their last 6 contests.
The total went OVER in 6 of Washington’s last 9 matches against Cincinnati.

Cincinnati Reds vs Washington Nationals. The MLB pick for this game is the Washington Nationals. In all but one of his appearances this season, Lodolo hit a batter because of poor command.

The Nationals should be able to capitalize on his form because he is facing a Washington lineup that still has a batting average inside the top 15 in MLB.

Washington is also performing better than most give them credit for, with nine of their previous 10 games ending in victories or defeats by two runs or less.

With his most recent strong performance behind him, Corbin has some momentum going into this match. The Washington Nationals will win to a predicted score of 5-4.
