Texas at Miami

The Texas Rangers once wielded some lethal bats in their lineup, but they have departed, replaced by strong pitching in recent years. However, injuries have left a vacancy in the attack and on the hill. Miami has been living on the edge all season as they recorded their 11th walk-off win of the season last night, and they have now won 32 games by a single run. Both of those numbers are highs for any MLB team this season. Needless to say their margin for error has been very slim when they win, and the opponent (good or bad) does not seem to enter into that equation. That offers some value on the now underrated Rangers in this contest playing to inflated odds. Eovaldi has been inconsistent to say the least and Miami has paid the price, going 1-7 in his last eight starts if he made a quality start in his previous outing. Take the Rangers in this one.
