Texas Rangers vs Oakland Athletics. The MLB pick for this game is the Texas Rangers.

 

Texas just defeated Mariners ace Luis Castillo in a convincing road victory, earning the Rangers their first series victory in Seattle in over four years.

 

They scored three runs on eight hits, pulled Castillo from the match after five innings, and Marcus Semien homered while driving in two runs.

 

Tomorrow’s starting pitcher for the Athletics will have to deal with one of baseball’s top lineups. Texas also has reliable road splits (.252 BA/.330 OBP/.392 SLG/.722 OPS).

 

Eovaldi was recently almost unhittable, allowing just eight hits and no runs over his previous two outings, totaling 17.0 innings.

 

He should continue to dominate an Oakland lineup that only bats .213 with a .296 OBP at home and only hits .224 with a .309 OBP against right-handers. The Texas Rangers will win to a predicted score of 6-4.
