Texas has not fallen apart on offense after losing Josh Hamilton, a winning record ranked fifth in batting average, ninth in on-base percentage and seventh in slugging. The rival Angels finish up a series and they are 1-4 in their last five road games vs. a right-handed starter. They will face righty Yu Darvish, the Texas ace who threw eight plus innings in his first start and didn't allow a run while fanning 14 with no walks! The Rangers are 11-4 in Darvish's last 15 home starts, plus 25-9 in their last 34 Sunday games. The Angels are 2-5 in their last seven road games and have Jered Weaver going. However, they are 4-9 in Weaver's last 13 Sunday starts and 1-5 in Weaver's last six starts as an underdog. LA is 0-5 in Weaver's last five starts as a road underdog of +110 to +150 and Angels are just 4-10 in Weaver's last 14 road starts against the rival Rangers. Play the Rangers.
