The Nationals have not found a whole lot of success this season, but they hope they can finish the season strong with a few wins against the White Sox. On Wednesday, the Nationals scored four runs, and that was enough to pick up the win. James Wood had a huge game hitting two home runs and driving in two RBIs. Andrew Alvarez got the start and he went 4.1 innings giving up two hits and zero runs. 

The Nationals are averaging 4.23 runs while their pitching is giving up 5.51 runs per game. The offense is ranked 20th but the pitching is ranked 29th. To find success in this series, the pitching is going to have to be a whole lot better. Getting the start for the Nationals will be Cade Cavalli and he sits with a 3-1 record and an ERA of 4.23. In his last start against the New York Mets he went five innings giving up five hits and zero runs. 

Washington Nationals Player Prop Facts

  • Paul DeJong has hit a home run in three of his last seven appearances in night games against AL teams that held a losing record.
  • CJ Abrams has recorded at least one Double in four of his five previous appearances at Nationals Park against AL Central opponents that held a losing record.
  • Paul DeJong has recorded at least one hit in each of his last eight Friday night appearances against teams that held a losing record.

Chicago White Sox vs Washington Nationals Prediction 


The Nationals are going to start off this series strong, and it’s going to be because of the pitching here. Cavalii is on the mound and he’s someone I really trust is going to find success here. In his last start he gave up zero runs, and now he faces a much worse offense in the White Sox. Gomez has been fine, but not elite, and he’s going to give up three or four runs here. The bullpen will give a couple more, and Washington will come out ahead. Back the Nationals on the money line.
