Mackenzie Gore has allowed six runs, or more, in two of his last three starts. Luis Severino is currently in better form, allowing two runs, or fewer, in four straight, and the Athletics have won his last three starts, two of them on the road. Washington is currently hitting .220 over their last seven days as compared to the Athletics .284 and Washington is also 1-8 SU as home favorites this season.

Brent Rooker has crushed left-handed pitching this season, posting a .971 OPS, and he gets a favorable matchup today. MacKenzie Gore has struggled recently, allowing opponents to hit .304 with a .937 OPS over his last four starts. While many East Coast games today have poor home run indexes, this one sits at 6/10—giving Rooker a decent shot if he barrels one up. We set his line at +298 to homer.
