Nationals over Braves- The Atlanta Braves have struggled of late going just 13-16 in May and have lost 11 of 19 in June while the Nationals are 6-2 in their last eight home games and 53-25 as favorites in their last 78 games. The biggest draw-back to taking Washington here is that the Braves have had the best of the rivalry winning 24 of the last 32 meetings. Still, today Washington has the best of it on the hill as Tanner Roark (6-4, 2.85 ERA) who has surrendered more then three earned runs just once in 12 starts and is 1-0 with a .55 ERA in four career starts against the Braves. Atlanta starter Ervin Santana (5-4, 4.12) is 1-4 with a 6.17 ERA in his last seven starts. Take WASHINGTON!
