Premium Pick

The Oakland A's took two of three from the Yankees over the weekend, finishing off the three game series coasting to a win after generating a 10-0 lead. Drew Pomeranz has pitched well over his head with a 1.90 ERA coming into this game, while Colby Lewis has been way below expectations with an ERA of 5.74. The odds here are refelctive of that, but Lewis will come down over time, and Pomaranz will go up, so we do have some expected value here. Lewis has great career numbers vs. the A's as he has a career 7-4 mark against them, limiting them to a combined team average of .213. The Rangers have been rock solid off a loss at 21-8 in their last 29 games, and have fared well in Oakland where they have won four of their last five. Make the play on Texas.
