San Diego Padres vs Texas Rangers Prediction
The Rangers are going to be favored because they’re at home with deGrom on the mound. I get it. However, the Rangers have been a mess this week and aren’t a team I’m excited to back right now. Vasquez has also held his own with a 3.63 ERA and 1.32 WHIP, and he has a 2.08 ERA and a .234 allowed batting average in 34.2 road innings. We’ve been fading the Padres a lot over the last month or so, but with the plus money, this is a spot where I want them against a struggling Rangers side.
