Seattle Mariners vs. Texas Rangers Prediction

I’m on the Rangers here. I just feel like deGrom is a more favorable look in this spot as Gilbert’s main issue was pitching on the road last season and his worst start against these Rangers came in this very ballpark. deGrom’s had issues in his debut this season, but I think he’s the better starter here and I think the Rangers are a better team than what they showed up to this point in the year. Give me the Rangers.
