When Stephen Strausburg made his MLB debut, it was with big fanfare. While he has pitched very well, the Nationals as a team have had their moments, but a lot fewer of them than expected this year. That has a lot to do with key injuries that has taken its toll on the offense, especially in the heart of the order. Strasburg has pitched to a respectable 3.15 ERA, but has just a 4-4 record. A.J. Burnett has controlled this Nat's lineup with a 9-3 career record and 117 k's in 120 innings against them. The Phillies are 7-3 in his last 10 starts, and this one will likely be decided by a key hit, which has been lacking for Washington this season. The Nats are just 5-16 in their last 21 following a win. Make the play on Philadelphia.
