Join Discord for earlier access: https://discord.gg/HjKxYKdSUy Washington is ahead of New York in the NL East table and the season series is split. The Mets dropped 16 here last night, but that is exactly the kind of box score that taxes the favorite. Wood and Abrams both carry OPS marks above .910, enough punch for a +130 home dog.

(FD) This one hurts, but it's a bit too high - Griffin has been league average - WSH offense has been average (better than NYM) - both teams poor defense - WSH better base running (Would only play to +130)
