2-Unit Play. Take #907. Take Under 10 between the Washington Nationals vs. Colorado Rockies (Thursday @ 8:40pm est).
Lannan's era is not indicative of him coming around lately for Washington, as most of their pitchers are. Yes, Lannan had a rough start in his last go at Florida. But, he has yet to put together back to back nonquality starts. Each time he has a rough outing, he comes through with a nice quality start. Take a look at Lannan's earned runs over all of his starts this year and you will see a pattern: 5, 3, 2, 4, 3, 6. The pattern goes from the first start of the year to his most recent start. He comes off his worst start of the year giving up six runs to Florida and this is why I think he will have a strong bounce-back start today. Having said that, the Rockies send a new hurler by the name of Chacin who is just 20 years old but has done very well in his first two starts. Chacin has gone on the road to face a good Dodgers and Giants team and has given up no runs in just over 14 innings of work. I think Washington will have some success against him today and will get on the board without a doubt, but having said that, I do think Chacin enjoys the honeymoon time period the first time through the league. I look for this game to be a likely 5-3 type of ballgame and Washington is a quality dog today as well in my opinion for what its worth.
