I was going to do some Fondue (I believe should be capitalized) tonight, but the Red Sox just irritated my bowels so cheese won't help. Unbelievable. I was pretty darn sure on that one. Ah, July baseball. So here we are. No Jazz Chisholm as we know for the Marlins and now Jorge Soler is out. Miami averages about 1.5 runs fewer with the Jazz (name your favorite jazz band or even have one and I will either send you a T-shirt or block you on Twitter). Pitching matchup favors the Nats with Josiah Gray. I'm just still irked so this may be an impulse play.

Apologies for the late post. Trevor Rogers hasn't been as bad as his ERA indicates, but I still like the Nats to do enough damage to support Josiah Gray. Gray has been brilliant over his last five starts, allowing a total of four earned runs. Back Washington to bounce back from Wednesday's tough 8-7 loss to the Pirates and win for the fourth time in five games.
