Yankees vs. Nationals MLB BETTING PREDICTION
Take the Nationals on the run line. This young Washington team is continuing to play hard, they gave the Braves all they can handle this past weekend in Atlanta, and I believe we see competitive games this series against New York. Cortes and Parker have similar numbers this season, I expect to see a close contest and for that reason Washington with a run head start is the play.
MLB BETTING PREDICTION: Washington +1.5 -110
