The Washington Nationals (35-33) go for the sweep of the San Francisco Giants (27-41) Wednesday afternoon, following victories of 4-3 and 6-3. It’s the Giants, however, that are the favorites in the MLB odds to salvage a game in this series. First pitch at Oracle Park is set for 12:45 PM PT / 3:45 PM ET, with Foster Griffin toeing the rubber against Robbie Ray.

On the campaign, San Fran won the first two meetings, but Washington has fought back with three straight victories since. The Nats have won four of five, while the Giants have dropped ten of 15. Keep reading for the odds for this matchup, with my predictions and best bets, along with public betting splits for this matinee affair.

Picks and Prediction: Nationals vs Giants

  • The Pick: Nationals Moneyline (-104 at FanDuel)
  • Player Prop: Foster Griffin Under 5.5 Strikeouts (-153 at DraftKings)

When evaluating the pitching matchup, Washington has a clear edge that makes the Nationals an attractive moneyline option as a road underdog. Foster Griffin brings stability with a 3.63 ERA and a 1.10 WHIP. His ability to keep runners off base contrasts with Robbie Ray’s situation in San Francisco. Ray has struggled with command, posting a 4.12 ERA, a 1.40 WHIP and 4.79 walks per nine innings.

Against a pitcher who has trouble finding the strike zone, the Nationals lineup is positioned to capitalize. Washington has power bats such as James Wood (17 home runs, .930 OPS) and CJ Abrams (14 home runs, .915 OPS). With that offensive profile, my pick is Washington moneyline (-104).

As for the MLB player props, I find a favorable edge on the visiting starter. Griffin prevents runs effectively, but his strikeout ceiling is limited. He averages 8.62 strikeouts per nine innings but only 5.54 innings per start. That projects him for 5.3 strikeouts today. My pick is Foster Griffin Under 5.5 Strikeouts (-153 at DraftKings), as he is more likely to generate weak contact than pile up strikeouts.
