Saturday Early Game Total!

Record 4-1 (+257)

Going right back to the well today, as I was very surprised to see this total set at only 8.5.

The Nationals have given up 32 runs in 4 games, meaning an average on 8 per game. The Nationals will hand the ball to John Lannan (0-1, 12.27 ERA), who looks to bounce back after lasting only 3 2/3 innings against the Phillies on Monday. Lannan gave up five runs and seven hits in the 11-1 loss, with eight of the 10 batters he faced in the fourth inning reaching base.

The left-hander is 3-4 with a 3.62 ERA in 10 career starts against the Mets, including 0-3 with a 6.00 ERA in five starts in New York.

For the Mets, Oliver Perez went 0-1 in five spring training starts and one relief appearance, posting an 8.68 ERA while walking 10 in 18 2/3 innings.
He lost both outings to the Nationals last season, giving up 11 runs and walking nine in 10 1/3 innings. Overall, he is 3-5 with a 7.14 ERA against them.

How can this game not go Over 8.5 (-120) this afternoon?

Good Luck All!
