The Los Angeles Dodgers come into this game looking to add on to their win over Washington from Saturday to sit at 85-57 this season. After this series, the Dodgers will take on the Cincinnati Reds in a series at home.

Shohei Ohtani has 139 hits with 25 doubles, 30 home runs and 80 RBIs and Freddie Freeman has 155 hits with 32 doubles, a triple, 16 home runs and 66 RBIs this season. Will Smith has 6 home runs and 23 RBIs as well this season. Max Muncy’s added 103 hits with 20 doubles, 26 home runs and 68 RBIs and Kyle Tucker has 105 hits with 20 doubles, 11 home runs and 58 RBIs this season.
I’m on the Dodgers here. The Nationals were competitive on Saturday, but I just feel like this is a tricky spot for Washington after such a close call as the Nationals haven’t been able to back up Alvarez in a lot of Alvarez’s recent starts. The Dodgers have the more potent and consistent offense and I just think that Los Angeles takes care of business here. Give me the Dodgers.
