The Philadelphia Phillies travel to Texas on Tuesday to take on the Rangers in an inter-league clash.
The Phillies are one of the hottest teams in baseball and have climbed back into the division hunt and playoff contention with their play over the last three weeks. The Rangers are in 3rd place in the AL West, comfortably behind the front-running Astros.
Philadelphia Phillies
The Philadelphia Phillies come into this series winners of 15 out of their last 18 games. They have now won five straight series and have improved to 36-32 on the season. The Phillies nearly swept away the Nationals in Washington in a rare 5-game series but dropped Sunday’s finale 9-3.
In the loss, the Phillies again played without reigning MVP Bryce Harper due to a blister on his left hand. The Phils are hopeful that Harper will be ready to go with an additional day off on Monday.
The Phillies hottest player at the moment is Kyle Schwarber. Schwarber has reached bases safely in 24 straight games entering Tuesday night. During the streak he has 8 home runs, 22 runs scored and 23 walks. Rhys Hoskins is also enjoying the month of June. He is hitting .338 with 5 homers, 12 runs scored and 13 RBI in 17 games played to begin the month.
Texas Rangers
The Rangers come into this matchup fresh off of a series split with the lowly Detroit Tigers. After taking the first two games, Texas looked well on its way to a series win until the Tigers bats suddenly came alive to trounce Rangers pitching. The league’s worst hitting team scored 14 runs on Saturday in a 14-7 win and then followed that up with seven more runs in a 7-3 win on Sunday.
Texas now finds itself at 31-35 and back in 3rd place in the AL West Division. They are seemingly tied with the Angels as both clubs are 10 games back from the division leading Astros.
The Rangers are now 5-5 in their last ten games after dropping the final two games in Detroit. The Rangers return home with a home record of just 14-18. Thanks the back-to-back blowout losses, Texas now owns a -4 run differential on the season.
MLB Baseball Betting Trends:

- Rangers are 18-14 ATS at home
- Rangers O/U are 14-17-1 at home
Philadelphia Phillies vs. Texas Rangers MLB Prediction:
Martin Perez has been outstanding for the Rangers this season, with 10 quality starts in 13 and perpetually giving the Rangers a chance to win. The Rangers have won 8 out of Perez’ last 9 starts this season.
Perez was outstanding in his first start this season against the Phillies in Philadelphia. He went 7 innings and allowed just 4 hits while striking out 4 and throwing just 88 pitches.
The Phillies have been playing well but I give the slight edge to the Rangers at home.
