Nationals vs Blue Jays Predictions, Props, Betting Analysis
Nationals Team Total Prediction: Over 3.5 (-115; DraftKings)
By Nick Galaida
Jose Berrios has struggled with lefties for most of his career — he enters play with a 4.65 FIP and 1.32 WHIP across the platoon since debuting in 2016.
Tonight, he figures to see six consecutive lefties at the top of the Washington lineup.
Toronto’s arm barn isn’t in the worst shape right now, but it has used Yimi Garcia and Brendon Little in three of the last four days, and Nick Sandlin in three of the last five days.
The Blue Jays should try to get some length from Berrios here, which might not be the best thing in terms of run prevention.
Washington should have opportunities to do damage.
Vladimir Guerrero Jr. Player Props: Home Run (+550; DraftKings)
By Grant Neiffer
This matchup is great, and these odds really don’t reflect it.
Even if we assume that Vlad is just a 30-HR hitter with “no” upside, these odds are far off.
Vlad gets a matchup vs. Trevor Williams, who is in for some massive regression from last season. He only gave up three HRs in 66 innings despite being a fly-ball pitcher.
In 2023, he was absolutely torched by righties, allowing 2.57 HR/9. While I don’t expect him to regress to that extent, he grades out as an above-average matchup for righty power.
I have the true odds for a Vlad homer around +425.
