Nationals at Dodgers picks and predictions

Prediction

Dodgers 7, Nationals 3

Moneyline

Even though the Dodgers should cruise to a win on Monday night, PASS on taking the -250 moneyline in this game.

Run line/Against the spread

DODGERS -1.5 (-125) has solid value despite Los Angeles winning only 4 of its last 10 games. The Dodgers get to return home after a 10-game road trip and get to face a pitcher in Williams who has struggled in recent starts.

Over/Under

OVER 9 (-105) is the pick in this NL matchup with Williams sputtering in recent starts and Miller making just his 2nd career start. The Dodgers have produced 5-plus runs in 8 of their last 10 games, so we’ll likely just need a couple of runs from the Nationals to hit the Over.

Los Angeles is 4-0 to the Over in its last 4 games following a loss and 7-1 to the Over in its last 8 games overall.
