Rangers vs Angels Prediction
The Rangers won seven of the previous ten H2H encounters, but the Angels were better in three of the last five. I will avoid betting on the winner in this one and will go with Under instead. Patrick Corbin has been excellent recently; he allowed five runs in four starts in July, while he posted a 2.61 ERA in two starts against the Angels this season. Yusei Kikuchi, on the other hand, is having a weaker month than he had in June, but he should be fine against the Rangers, who have a .216 BA in 962 at-bats against left-handers this year. Kikuchi registered a 4.09 ERA in two starts against Texas. Go with Under.
