The New York Yankees and Texas Rangers face off on Monday in an MLB showdown at Yankee Stadium. These two teams split a doubleheader on Sunday. The Yakees won the first game 2-1 but the Rangers got some revenge in Game 2 winning 4-2.
The Yankees come into this game with a 19-8 record overall but they have lost two of the last three games. The offense has been a bit of an issue coming into this game only scoring five runs total over the last three games. Even when the offense has struggled though, the pitching staff has been good all season giving up only 2.78 runs per game which is second in all of baseball.
On the other side of this matchup is the Texas Rangers who sit with an 11-15 record overall but they are turning the season around a bit winning five of the last six games. The pitching early in the season was an issue, but they are doing a better job of that the last week. In this game, the Rangers are going to need the pitching to be good. Adolis Garcia has been the top player for the Rangers hitting four home runs and driving in 18 RBIs.
Getting the start for the Rangers will be Jon Gray who sits with an 0-1 record and an ERA of 7.50.
On the mound for the Yankees is Nestor Cortes who sits with a 1-1 record and an ERA of 1.82. In his last start against the Toronto Blue Jays, Cortes went four innings giving up four hits and two runs.
The Yankees are 10-1 in their last 11 games against a right-handed starter. The under is 4-0 in Cortes last four starts on four days of rest. The under is 5-1 in the Rangers last six games played on Monday.
The Yankees bats have been struggling a bit heading into this game, but they are going to breakout in this game against Jon Gray. In Gray’s last start against the Philadelphia Phillies, he went three innings giving up five hits and three runs. Gray is going to struggle, and the Yankees will win this game on the run line.
