4* Money Maker
(MLB) Washington vs. NY Mets,
Money Line: -110.00 Washington (Away)
Result: Win
Taking the NATS here. Generally I will play a top team off a shutout. Add in that they get a soft tosser like Colon, and I am all in. Not that it could matter, but the NYP has a front page of Colon and his 'secret' family. The guy seems to have 2 kids with his side chick (4 with wife) and the jump-off is calling him a dead beat. Now, this isn't news to Bartolo, but I am sure he isn't happy with it being tabloid front page material. Back to the baseball side of things. GG has a tidy 1.93 ERA in 7 starts with just 2 wins to show for it. .224 BA Against 1.12 WHIP not terrible numbers. He has given up more than 2 earned once, (5) against the Cubs. Colon will give up his 3 runs a game. He'll go 7 for you. That is what he does. Nats 8-2 in Gio's last 10 starts vs Mets. 4* Money Maker WASHINGTON NATIONALS
