The Milwaukee Brewers take on the Washington Nationals. Newly acquired Frankie Montas gets the start for Milwaukee while the Nats counter with Jake Irvin. The Brewers are atop of the NL Central and lead St. Louis by 5 games. The Brewers have lost four of their last six games. Montas came over from Cincinnati, where he posted a 4-8 record with a 5.01 ERA and 1.44 WHIP in 93.1 innings. The Nats come into this game having lost four straight. They are 16.5 games out of first in the division. Jake Irvin is 8-8 this season with a 3.44 ERA and a 1.08 WHIP in 128.1 innings. The Nationals traded away some key players that produced this season. Montas has not been overpowering this season. He should be able to improve with the Brewers as they seem to get the best from their pitchers. The have a 3.29 ERA bullpen ERA. I am going to ride with the Brewers and Montas in this one.
