Placing a Wager on Nationals to Cover Run Line with Optimism in Starter Irvin and Brewer's Weakened Lineup

I'm placing a wager on the Nationals at -115 odds to cover the run line. With starter Irvin's performance having improved, holding his past seven opponents to three or fewer runs (44.0 IP) including teams such as the Dodgers, Phillies, and A's, there is strong optimism that he will minimize Miley's effectiveness. Washington also performs well against left-handed pitchers (.266 BA/.325 OBP/.413 SLG/.738 OPS vs right-handed's .250/.311/.387/.698). To make it more attractive, the Brewers' lineup lacks full strength due to Jesse Winker and Mark Canha being out and Christian Yelich struggling with lower-back soreness. With the moneyline -192 being too rich, I am in on the Nationals run line.
