Tampa Bay Rays vs. Texas Rangers The MLB pick for this game is the Texas Rangers. Four of their past six games and three last four at home were victories for the Rangers.

Since they dominated right-handed pitching this season and Bradley struggled recently, giving up 16 runs in his previous three outings, expect them to play well offensively in this game.

The Rays won three of their past four games, but three of their last five away games ended in losses. Their recent three away games saw them score 14 runs, demonstrating their strong offensive performance.

They performed well at the plate against right-handers this season.

Still, they will have offensive difficulties in this game since Texas’ Eovaldi was effective on the mound, particularly at home, where he did not allow a run in two of his previous three appearances.

He will restrain the Rays’ offense after allowing four runs in his previous three outings against them. The Texas Rangers will win by a predicted score of 6-5.
