Philadelphia Phillies vs Washington Nationals Prediction: Will the Phillies beat the Nationals?

Washington performed as the top seller during the trade deadline and parted with two leading players, Juan Soto and Josh Bell. Will Philadelphia easily beat an outsider? Let's pick a few bets at once.

Philadelphia Phillies

The Phillies finally concluded that the team lacked a quality starting pitcher and signed Noah Syndergaard, who played for the Los Angeles Angels this season. Syndergaard hasn't had the best results lately, but maybe the pitcher will prove himself in his new environment.

Syndergaard has been named Philadelphia's starting pitcher for the upcoming game. The 29-year-old Texas native is 5-8 and has a 3.83 ERA in 15 games this season for the Angels.

Washington Nationals

The Nationals are already last in the National League this season, and after giving up two of their best performers, they seem to have forgotten the taste of winning altogether. In the previous game, the team scored five runs in the 9th inning against the New York Mets. Washington now has 36-70, the worst record in either conference.

The starting pitcher for Washington in their upcoming game against Philadelphia will be Paolo Espino, who is 0-3 and has a 3.78 ERA in 29 games in this league.

Expert Betting Tips

Washington has no tournament goals, so they can experiment with all sorts of things without overthinking the result. The Nationals will be doing that for the rest of the season. At the same time, Philadelphia continue to desperately chase the Mets and Braves, the leaders of their NL East division, and badly need a win. Rob Thompson's team needs to take every game from Washington.
