This is a 5* BIG-CHALK CHOKE-OUT is on the Washington Nationals.
A couple of competent starters go head-to-head on Monday night, but in our opinion, Stephen Strasburg has a considerable advantage over his inconsistent counterpart:
Mike Foltynewicz: He's 4-5 with a 3.48 ERA. Foltynewicz comes in on top form, most recently holding the Phillies scoreless over seven innings, giving up just four hits and two walks while striking out four. That's now back-to-back seven frame shutout performances for the crafty right-hander. Foltynewicz has been far from perfect this season though and clearly this is a tough matchup tonight in the Nation's capital.
Stephen Strasburg: He's 7-2 with a 2.80 ERA. Strasburg most recently gave up two runs (one earned) off three hits and one walk to go along with eight K's over six innings in an unfortunate loss against the Dodgers on Wednesday. Clayton Kershaw earned the win for LA. Strasburg had won four straight outings previous to that and note that it was the seventh time this year that he's struck out at least eight batters.
The bottom line: Strasburg has been tough at home as well, going 2-1 with a 3.18 ERA. Note that the Braves are just 12-21 (-7.3 units) this year following a loss, while Washingotn is 26-9 (+14.8 units) in all "night" contets. Strasburg is the play here, lay the price with confidence. Play on WASHINGTON.
