What drives the call
Grayson Rodriguez (4–7, 6.28 ERA) and Jake Irvin (2–9, 5.52) create a high-variance starting matchup between two losing clubs.
Washington’s home edge is small and the pitching volatility undermines both side prices. A nine-run total already anticipates scoring, leaving no responsible advantage in the full-game markets.
The projection does not clear the posted spread/run line, total, or moneyline after uncertainty and price are included. Passing protects the ledger from a low-quality position.

Risks and uncertainty
