Atlanta Braves vs Washington Nationals Prediction: Will the Braves beat the Nationals again?

Atlanta destroyed their division rival with a score of 12:2 in the first game of the home series with Washington. Will the second game also stay for the Braves? Let's pick a few bets at once.

By the end of the first half of the regular season, the Braves had almost caught up with the New York Mets in the National League East Division standings. After winning the series' first game against Washington, Atlanta led 50-35. The Mets are 52-32.

Kyle Wright will pitch for the Braves' second game against the Nationals with a 9-4 record and 2.91 ERA in 16 games this season.

With a 30-56 balance, the Nationals are comfortably in last place in the entire National League. They are unlikely to be able to move anyone but Cincinnati before the end of the championship.

Patrick Corbin will pitch for Washington in the second series game with Atlanta, 4-10 and a 5.68 ERA in 17 games.

Washington starting pitcher Patrick Corbin has had two quality starts in a row, but only against Pittsburgh and Miami. Atlanta is arguably the hottest team in the MLB right now and will surely solidify the Capitals' experienced pitcher as one of the worst this season. The prospect of another Braves rout over the Nationals is very real.
