Washington Nationals +151 & Washington Nationals/Texas Rangers U9 -113

The Nats and Rangers play G2 of their 3 games series tonight when T. Williams faces A. Heaney on the mound. The Rangers won the opener of the series last night by a score of 7-1. Both teams are having opposite starts to the season, the Nats have surprised many with their 14-15 start while expectations where clearly higher for the defending World Series champions as the Rangers sit at only 16-14. I feel the line for this game is strictly on name recognition between the two sides rather than performance, Williams (2.70 ERA) has easily outperformed Heaney (6.26 ERA) on the mound. The results are clear for both sides when these two are on the mound, the Nats are 4-1 in Williams starts while the Rangers have lost all 5 of Heaney's starts this season. Heaney hasn't pitched well this season and I will back the Nats as a big dog here as Williams has really been dominating teams, I also like the under here as well. 

Chicago Cubs -115

The Cubs and Mets play G3 of their 4 games series tonight, both sides have won a game so far, the Cubs send their best pitcher so far this season to the mound in S. Imanaga (0.98 ERA). He will face another pitcher in J. Butto who has impressed many so far this season with his 2.86 ERA. Butto started the season with 2 solid starts but we have seen some regression over his last two starts, he couldn't get through 5 IP versus the Dodgers giving up 2 runs while letting the Cardinals rough him up in his last start (4 ER in 5 2/3 IP) which resulted in a 4-2 loss for the Mets. Imanaga has been filthy this season allowing only 3 ER total in his 5 starts, The key to his success has been limiting base runners as his WHIP is 0.79. I like him to limit the Mets tonight and the Cubs to win this game.
