The Angels are 3-2 in their last 5 head-to-head meetings against the Rangers, but the Rangers are 3-2 in their last 5 meetings in Texas. Under is 8-1 in their last 9 meetings.

In this Angels vs Rangers Prediction, the Rangers are coming as -155 home favorites. The Rangers are going for a bullpen game, but their bullpen ERA is the 6^th-best in baseball. On the flip side, the Angels are putting Kochanowicz on the mound, who has been terrible this season and has a 1-4 record in his last 5 starts. The Rangers are very strong at home, and while I don’t back teams in bullpen games, I like the chances with the Rangers in this one.
