Trends
Texas is 5-1 in their last 6 games and 18-44 in their last 62 Friday games. The under is 7-3 in Texas’ last 10 road games. Baltimore is 5-1 in their last 6 games and 36-16 in their last 52 game one’s of a series. The over is 4-1 in Baltimore’s last 5 games. Texas is 1-8 in these two teams last 9 head to head meetings.
Pick
Both of these teams have found success so far this season and this should be a very entertaining series. Texas is starting Jon Gray, who has allowed one earned run or fewer in three straight starts. Baltimore is starting Grayson Rodriguez, who has allowed six earned runs or more in two of his last four starts. Texas has one of the best offensive attacks in baseball and I think they are going to get to Rodriguez early. Take the Rangers here.
