The Padres should be able to sweep the Nationals with Patrick Corbin on the mound today. Cease has played so well in his last few games, striking out 21 batters in his last two games, giving up no runs in those games. The Padres offense is potent in this series so they should win by a few runs. The Padres are 54-25 in their last 79 games as a road favorite of -151 to -200. The Padres are 33-17 against the spread on the road so the runline has very good value in this spot. San Diego is 5-1 in their last 6 games when playing on the road against Washington. Washington is 3-8 straight up when Corbin is on the mound, despite him pitching a little better in the second half of the season, he still is very inconsistent and their bullpen below average.

Best bet: take San Diego on the runline (RL).
