Rays vs Nationals Prediction
The Washington Nationals will host the Tampa Bay Rays for the final game of their three-game set this Tuesday from Nationals Park. Tampa won last night’s meeting with a big fifth inning, 10-6.
Rays Betting Preview
Tampa Bay comes in at 5-0 after stealing game two in DC, and they’ll look to remain undefeated and complete the sweep here. The Rays are batting .275, with a 1.00 team ERA. Yandy Diaz has hit three RBI in two of three games. Randy Arozarena has recorded a hit in each of the first five games.
Shane McClanahan will take the mound for Tampa. The ace of staff was sharp in his season debut, tossing six shutout innings, while striking out six along the way.
Nationals Betting Preview
Washington fell to 1-4 after losing to Tampa Bay last night. The Nats put together their highest run total of the season before letting the Rays slip away with the late victory. The Nationals are batting .189, with a 4.25 team ERA. Lane Thomas has recorded multiple hits in three of the last four games, and he recorded three RBI versus Tampa last night.
Patrick Corbin will get the start for Washington. The tenth-year pitcher struggled on Opening Day with Atlanta, only lasting three innings before giving up four runs and being pulled.

Tampa Bay is 5-0 against the spread this season, with a 2-2-1 over/under record. Washington is 1-4 ATS this year, with a 2-2-1 O/U record.

Over is 5-1 in Tampa's last 6 interleague games vs. a left-handed starter.
Corey's Free Pick
Whenever Patrick Corbin starts you circle it on the slate and target the matchup. Corbin was vulnerable last season, and after displaying more of the same in his season debut. Tampa has a massive advantage on the mound coming into this one with Shane McClanahan, and I like leaning on them to execute and back down to Florida undefeated. Take the Rays run line for this interleague contest.
