Arizona Diamondbacks vs Washington Nationals Prediction

The Washington Nationals have had issues sustaining success through eight games, as the offense goes into hiding way too often and the pitching hasn’t been good to say the least. The Diamondbacks have flexed their muscle as one of the best offensive teams in the sport and they’re throwing out a CY Young winner in Burnes. With a game under his belt, Burnes should be better his second time out, and I won’t be too harsh on him for struggling against the Yankees. A lot of guys will this season. This is a softer landing. Give me the Diamondbacks on Sunday, and I’ll lay the RL to shave down the price.
