Irvin has shown the ability to perform well on the road, including a recent standout performance against the Baltimore Orioles, where he delivered six innings of two-run ball in a decisive 9-3 Nationals victory. While Irvin has faced some challenges against the Phillies in previous matchups, his overall road form and recent success suggest he’s capable of giving Washington a strong chance in this contest.
On the other side, Taijuan Walker will start for the Phillies, but his recent form raises significant concerns. Walker has struggled mightily, with an ERA of 5.68 and a WHIP of 1.51 over 11 starts. The Phillies have lost Walker’s last six starts and seven of his last eight, including defeats against teams with losing records like the Miami Marlins and St. Louis Cardinals. His control issues and tendency to give up home runs (2.05 HR/9) make him a risky proposition, particularly against a Nationals team that has been one of the more profitable bets this season.
Moreover, the Phillies bullpen has been shaky, with an ERA of 5.24 over the past five games, further compounding Philadelphia’s pitching woes. Both teams have been hitting well recently, but given Walker's struggles and the Nationals’ ability to capitalize on these kinds of matchups, Washington has a strong edge.
