You never want to put too much stock in a single series, but the reality is that at this stage of the season, a single series may well be what makes or breaks your team’s playoff chances. If that is indeed the case, then the Washington Nationals are going to look at their last series with the New York Mets as the one that did them in. The Nats will try to pick up the pieces when they travel to Miami to face the Marlins on Friday where they’re -150 baseball betting favorites.
