Opposing Analysis

The Nationals' pitching staff has struggled recently, particularly their starting rotation. MacKenzie Gore, who will take the mound, has a mixed record of 6-8 with a 4.51 ERA.

The Nationals' defense has also been suspect, which could lead to more opportunities for Perdomo to drive in runs and score.
