The game concludes a brief two-game series between the two teams.<strong> New York<\/strong> won Tuesday\u2019s game 3-0.<\/p>\n<p>Technically, the <strong>Yankees<\/strong> are tied with the Red Sox atop the AL East. However, the <strong>Bronx<\/strong> <strong>Bombers<\/strong> have somehow played six fewer games than Boston, giving them three fewer wins but also three fewer losses. With the way they\u2019re playing lately, having six extra games left to play is a significant advantage, as the Yankees are 8-2 since the calendar flipped to June.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, the <strong>Nationals<\/strong> have fallen one game back of the Braves in the NL East. Washington was red hot toward the end of May, which allowed them to climb back toward the top of the division. However, the <strong>Nationals<\/strong> have lost three of their last four and have been shutout in their last two games, so they are desperate to get back on track with the NL East shaping up to be a tight, three-team race.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"gray-skies-clearing-up\">Gray Skies Clearing Up<\/h2>\n<p><strong>Sonny Gray<\/strong> will make the start for the Yankees on Wednesday. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mlb.com\/news\/sonny-grays-early-season-struggles-continue\/c-273083328\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Gray has largely struggled this season, but he\u2019s performed much better in his last two starts<\/a>. In those two starts, he\u2019s allowed just one run on six hits over 14 innings, walking two and striking out 14. To be fair, those two starts came against the Blue Jays and Orioles. But it does indicate that <strong>Gray<\/strong> is capable of overpowering weak lineups.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s also important to keep in mind that the Nationals aren\u2019t exactly clicking on all cylinders after being shutout in back-to-back games. Amidst a slew of injuries, Washington has become overly reliant on <strong>Bryce<\/strong> <strong>Harper<\/strong> and Matt Adams. Adam Eaton and Daniel Murphy have recently returned from the DL, but neither has gotten going just yet. <strong>Nationals<\/strong> hitters are also a combined 7 for 32 (.219) against Gray, so it could be another struggle for Washington at the plate.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"good-luck-rookie\"><strong>Good Luck, Rookie<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>At the same time, the <strong>Nationals<\/strong> will look to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/news\/nationals-journal\/wp\/2018\/06\/13\/erick-fedde-the-nationals-top-pitching-prospect-to-start-wednesday-against-the-yankees\/?noredirect=on&amp;utm_term=.70839a1554bf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">rookie Erick Fedde to get the start Wednesday,<\/a> as both Stephen Strasburg and Jeremy <strong>Hellickson<\/strong> are on the DL, creating vacancies in the team\u2019s rotation. Fedde is Washington\u2019s top pitching prospect, although his stock has fallen a bit over the past year. He made three uninspired starts last year and has made just one start this season. In that start, he gave up three runs over 5.2 innings against the Padres.<\/p>\n<p>This time around, Fedde will have to face the Yankees and their vaunted lineup. Even with a few of New York\u2019s heavy hitters going through slumps, most notably <strong>Giancarlo<\/strong> <strong>Stanton<\/strong>, Greg Bird, and Gary Sanchez, there are plenty of other threats up and down the batting order. Didi Gregorius may be heating up after two home runs on Tuesday. <strong>Brett<\/strong> <strong>Gardner<\/strong> and Miguel Andujar are also swinging a hot bat, while Aaron Judge remains a constant home run threat.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"as-you-were\"><strong>As You Were<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p>With the Yankees on a bit of a hot streak and the Nationals on a downturn, there\u2019s no reason to expect that to change on Wednesday. Even if the Nationals can do some damage against Gray, it\u2019s doubtful Fedde will keep the <strong>Yankees<\/strong> under wraps. Triple-A hitters are batting .307 against Fedde this season, and now he\u2019ll face the best lineup in baseball.\u00a0<b><strong><em><a href=\"https:\/\/offshoresportsbooks.com\/review\/mybookie\/\">Bet on the New York Yankees -150 over the Washington Nationals on Wednesday.<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\u00a0<\/span><strong><em><a href=\"https:\/\/offshoresportsbooks.com\/review\/mybookie\/\">Bet on Major League Baseball at MyBookie.<\/a><\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The New York Yankees and Washington Nationals will get together on Wednesday in Major League Baseball action.","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":2797,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3035],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2930","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-archive"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v20.0 -
