    way too much value on the Braves to pass up tonight.

    the young nationals will be dealing with a ton of nerves, having to face their toughest task to date, trying to hold off atlanta for 1st place. Yes the Nats have strasburg going but Atlanta has had the advantage of already seeing him twice this year. In his career against the Braves SS, has an ERA over 4. Dan Uggla owns him hitting at an .883 clip with 1 HR and 8 RBIs while Chipper and and Freeman are hitting .500 in limited ABs and McCann at .400. Tommy Hanson is good enough to match Strasburgh pitch for pitch and the Braves are playing their best ball of the season, winners of 7 of their last 10.

    really think the nerves of the young Nationals is going to take its toll on this game and series.

    Braves +130

    Zoo, props on your capping, view your threads all the time. I have to disagree with you on this one.. Strasburg comes out strong after his last experience vs ATL. On Wash pretty big, goodluck to the both of us!

    think you have it the other way around here....they are suckering in Washington money with the low line and Strasburgh on the mound..

    Agree about the value - be interesting to see if Chipper can get over lingering knee problems to suit up for this series

    I'm not a fan of Hanson, especially after watching his mediocre performance against the Mets last time out, but he does handle LaRoche and Zimmerman in the middle of the Nationals lineup

    this game entirely depends on weather Hanson can throw the curve ball for strikes or at least near the strike zone, while locating his fastball. if he can do that he should have no problems getting the young nats, who are mostly free swingers to chase balls out of the zone.

    i have confidence that he will

    I agree with one of the above posters in that this game will be decided on how Hanson is throwing tonight. He's had some really rough outings including his last one against the mets. Good luck, should be a close one.
