Are oddsmakers correct with both teams being basically a coin flip to win? One would think the Padres would have an edge at home but San Diego is facing some major pitching issues in this tilt.
Washington Nationals
The Nationals do come into Friday night’s contest on a nice little run. Prior to Thursday’s series opener Washington has rattled off wins in 6 of the last 7 including a 4 game winning streak. Washington remains in striking distance at just 6.5 GB in the East with a whole Summer of baseball yet to play.
One thing the Nats’ bats don’t have a lot of is experience vs. San Diego’s Friday night starter as only Gerardo Parra has faced Nick Margevicius. The San Diego starter is also a lefty, and Washington has lost 7 of 9 on the road to Southpaws.

The Nationals are eager to see if what they have in starter Erick Fedde is real. After some relief appearances earlier in the year, the right-hander has moved into the rotation for the last 3 starts – allowing just 3ER total over that span. Fedde’s first appearance of the year was vs. the Padres when he held them to 2 hits and 0ER over 4IP back in late April.
San Diego Padres
There figures to be a lot of bettors against San Diego in this contest even though they are at home. That’s because their starting pitcher Nick Margevicius is such a liability here.
In his last 3 starts, Margevicius has surrendered an astounding 15 runs. His last two starts have also been at home, where he’s given up 10ER to Miami and Pittsburgh in just 10 IP. Margevicius has a 9.17 ERA in his last four starts and the Padres are going from a 6-man to a 5-man rotation next week meaning the right-handers days are numbered.

Padres bats do have some experience vs. Fedde, the Washington starter. In fact, they have a .375 average as a team but in just 16 AB as no player has faced the Nationals right-hander more than 4 AB in their career.
