Interesting total LT, why does the system like the over today?
I don't like either Soriano or Parker, both have moderate strikeout rates and either poor (Parker) or mediocre (Soriano) soft/hard contact ratios. Soriano is a bit better, but Nats have actually been good offensively vs. righties since July 1 (wRC+ of 109).

Thanks, my worry is Soriano performing well in his most recent outing vs the Mets after he pitched horrible his previous game. He seems to have corrected some recent control issues.

Yes he pitched very well last out thanks to a season high (by a mile) soft contact rate of 31.3%, previous high was 22.2%. His soft rate for the season is only 15.6%, so I am basically daring him to do that again.
