Texas has plenty of offensive punch, ranked ninth in runs scored and #10 in slugging. The Rangers are 8-3 on the road against a team with a losing record. They face a Toronto squad that is terrible at home (22-35) with an offense that is #19 in runs scored, #28 in on-base percentage, and #22 in slugging. The Blue Jays bring up starter Neil Ramirez (5.40 ERA), recalled from Triple-A Buffalo on Sunday. The 30-year-old is on his seventh Major League team and makes his first big league start. As a reliever he had a 10.80 ERA in four career appearances against Texas. Also, the Blue Jays are 17-36 versus winning teams and 8-20 at home against a righty starter. Play Texas.
