Texas Rangers
I am still surprised when I see that Texas has the top offense in the Majors. It has helped them to be way more competitive than expected but most of their wins have come at home. Hunter Pence has been rejuvenated to the point that they just sent down Delino DeShields Jr even though he was leading the team in stolen bases early. If they can sustain offense this team can be a threat.

This looks like the spot for Drew Smyly, who has been their worst starter this season. He might have got a win in his last start but that was at home against a very light Toronto team. He only pitched 4 innings in that won to technically it was a team win not his. The Rangers pen has the worst K rate in the Majors and they are one of the worst bullpens overall too.
Houston Astros
Houston is looking like a team that should win the AL West easily. They are first in batting average and second in homers and eventually that will lead to better than 10th in scoring. Also they are first in the Majors in WHIP and Quality Starts. They can beat you so many ways and took the series opener on Thursday. George Springer is on one of his hot streaks so look out.

Gerrit Cole is striking out a ton of batters but he has also given up a lot more hits and especially a lot more homers. As a result his ERA is looking a lot more like it did in his Pittsburgh days. Since the dominance is there I am not too worried though. There is lots of time to smooth out those numbers. The Houston bullpen has the best ERA and FIP in the Majors.

Free Texas Rangers vs. Houston Astros MLB Prediction:
Fading the Rangers in a series like this one is a no brainer. I think you have to go run line though to justify the payoff.
4* Free MLB Betting Pick: Astros RL
Cole may not be pitching like a CY candidate yet but the game might be priced that way. I still like that side a lot. Smyly can easily be gotten to by all their righties.
