The brooms are out in Washington, but there's just too much value on the sweep avoidance side to justify another plunge on the Nationals bandwagon. Cardinals rookie Dakota Hudson went 1-1 with a 2.08 ERA during the regular season against Washington. Nationals starter Patrick Corbin gave up six earned runs in a home loss to the Cardinals in the regular season, He also had a 7.88 ERA and two losses in the divisional round against the Dodgers. The overlay Tuesday is too lucrative to pass up.
Dakota Hudson is 16-7 with a 3.35 ERA this season but he has allowed four runs in 4.2 IP in the playoffs. He was 7-5 with a 4.13 ERA on the road. Patrick Corbin is 14-7 with a 3.25 ERA this season and he allowed two runs in six innings in his start against the Dodgers. He also pitched one out in relief in Game 2. He is 8-2 with a 2.40 ERA at home. The Cardinals had the 13th worst OPS in the league against lefties this season and they have only managed two runs in three games this series, none off the Nationals starters. I like the Nats at home to go to their first World Series.
