Trends
Washington is 19-47 in their last 66 game three’s of a series and 14-38 in their last 52 Saturday games. The under is 7-3-1 in Washington’s last 11 road games. Colorado is 1-5 in their last 6 games and 7-20 in their last 27 game three’s of a series. The under is 8-4 in Colorado’s last 12 games. Washington is 2-5 in these two teams last 7 head to head meetings in Colorado.
Pick
These two teams have split the first two games in this series, but Washington is coming off of a big offensive day on Friday, where they scored 10 runs. Colorado has the slightly better metrics coming into this game, but they will have Austin Gomber on the mound, who allowed three runs over 6.0 innings pitched against San Diego in his first start. Washington is starting Trevor Williams, who allowed four runs (three earned) over 5.0 innings pitched against Tampa Bay. I am going to take Colorado at home in this game, but both of these pitchers may have some issues here.
