78.8% of the Nationals league high 33 road losses have come by more than 1 run. They will face the Astros who are starting to put it together a bit here with Roy Oswalt carrying a 2.13 ERA over his last 5 starts. Four of those 5 starts have come on the road so I believe he wants to show the home crowd what he has been up to after starting hte season slow.

Olsen has a 6.68ERA on the road this year and faced the Astros at home earlier giving up 5ER in 5IP. Expect much of the same for Olsen. He's pitched well in his 2 starts off the DL but I think he has a let down here today facing the Astros who are hitting Lefties hard .318 avg L5. The Nationals bullpen has been awful 5.84 and I expect them to see a lot of action here today.

Nationals 10-41 L51 as a road dog. They are 9-48 Last 57 vs. RH starter. Astros are 8-2 last 10 as favorites and they are 41-14 last 57 when Oswalt starts at home vs. a team with a losing record.
