2015 Season MLB Baseball Past Picks

New York is a .500 road team and heads to Texas, a tough team and a tough park to pitch in. That's a concern as starter Ivan Nova has been struggling, with the team 1-3 his last four starts. Nova is 0-2 with a 4.80 ERA on the road this season and 2-2 with a 4.80 ERA in five career starts against the Rangers. The Yankees are 1-4 in Nova's last five road starts, plus 1-5 on the road when he faces a team with a losing record. Texas has plenty of offensive punch, #8 in baseball in runs scored and #10 in slugging. The Rangers are on a 4-1 run as they kick off a 10-game homestand. Starter Matt Harrison throws best at home with the Rangers 9-4 in his last 13 home starts. The Rangers are 12-4 vs. the American League East, including a perfect 4-0 against the Yankees, making this a great situational spot for the home dog. Take Texas.
