The Washington Nationals will wrap up their series against the New York Mets today. New York has already clinched the series, surviving the first game in extra innings and cruising to a 5-0 victory in the second. The Nationals will look to right the ship and get one back against their NL East rival.

Starting for the Nationals is right-hander Michael Soroka. Soroka made his first start with the team in late March, filling in for some injured arms with somewhat poor results. He has posted a 4.86 ERA and a 1.11 WHIP, indicating his struggles against power hitters, a fact that is obvious when one considers the fact that Soroka has given up at least one home run in four of his last five starts. New York's power hitters should be champing at the bit to get a shot at Washington's starter here.

On the flip side, there is not a hitter in the world who is eager to face Mets starter Kodai Senga. The Japanese phenom has continued his dominance from the 2024 season, putting up a ridiculous 1.59 ERA with a 1.18 WHIP. Senga has not allowed more than two runs in a game since mid-May, a streak that looks likely to continue against a Washington offense that has not scored more than four runs in a game since last month.

Nationals vs Mets Predictions and Picks

Mark Ruelle of Winners and Whiners writes, "The Mets will turn to Senga to stay hot on Thursday afternoon. He has been dominant at home this season with a record of 4-1 and a dominant ERA of 1.13 in six games. The Mets have also won each of Senga's last three starts and four of his last five. The Nationals' Soroka has an ERA close to six on the road this season in four starts.

Coming into Wednesday night's game, the Mets have won three of the last four meetings with the Nationals. The Nationals are also just 11-17 during the day so far this season. The Mets are 17-9 during the day and also 25-7 at home heading into Wednesday night. Take the Mets -1.5"

Counting on Senga and the Mets is the right play. The Nationals have been ice-cold at the plate, and there is not much reason to believe that Michael Soroka will be able to keep the Mets off the scoreboard. Roll with the Mets.
