Texas at Los Angeles

The Texas Rangers have the best pitching in baseball. The Rangers have allowed 315 total runs on the season, fewer than any American League team. The issue is an offense that has managed just 340 runs. If this team can pick up a few bats before the trading deadline, they will be a strong contender. The Angels face a tall order tonight at home vs Jacob deGrom. deGrom is 9-2 with a 2.13 ERA. The Rangers' bats are likely to stay quiet facing Yusei Kikuchi. Kikuchi brings a 2.81 ERA into the contest. Kikuchi has allowed a total of 17 earned runs in his last 12 starts. DeGrom has allowed just 17 earned runs in his last 14 starts. I like the UNDER in this one.
