Washington Nationals vs Milwaukee Brewers Prediction

The Milwaukee Brewers are going to get the benefit of the doubt because they're the better team, and Colin Rea has been sharp this season for the most part. However, the Washington Nationals continue to compete despite a bunch of recent losses, and Jake Irvin has quietly been one of the better pitchers in the NL this season. Irvin and plus money has to be one of the better value bets on Sunday's MLB card. I'll take a shot with the Nats on the road and the more favorable price.
