The Orioles are well positioned for a sweep, with the
struggling Livan Hernandez on the hill for the visiting
Nationals. Their big righthander has only led his team
to wins in 5 of his 16 starts (-$560) and his ERA is a
bloated 5.64, including an 11.90 mark in his last two
outings. This righty vs. righty matchup gives the home
team a fat edge. They are very profitable vs. righties
(+$1205 with 5.3 runs per game), as opposed to
Washington's 21-33 (-$800) mark in that same
situation. They've lost 9 of their last 11 (-$755) and
should have their hands full with Daniel Cabrera,
who has led them to wins in 5 of his 7 starts at
Camden Yards.
