Texas Rangers vs Colorado Rockies Prediction
Rocker hasn’t been great through 37.1 innings with a 4.34 ERA and 1.50 WHIP, but at least he has a sample size under his belt. Peralta hasn’t pitched this season and he wasn’t good last year in a limited role. He’s also not going to pitch much in this start, and I’ve never been a fan of openers due to the amount of pitchers needed to get you across the finish line. The Rangers are the better team and need to take advantage of games like this. The price is cheap. Give me the Rangers.
