Texas Rangers
Friday night’s tilt between the Rangers and A’s being a virtual toss up (TEX -105, OAK -110) seems a bit off considering the fact that Texas is slumping hard right now. Chris Woodward’s team just dropped 2 of 3 to Seattle and Friday night’s game will be their 8th straight on the road. Oakland was a -182 favorite ahead of Thursday night’s series opener so why such the discrepancy?

The Rangers are 6th in the majors in runs/scored but they have been held to 3 runs or less in 5 of the last 6. Texas sends veteran Lance Lynn to the hill on Friday and the team has played well behind the right-hander. The Rangers have been victorious in 5 of the last 7 when Lynn starts. The losses came in the last two though and Lynn has been awful, allowing 9ER over 13 IP in his last two.
Oakland Athletics
Oakland returns home after a rough series in Houston where they lost 2 of 3 and were outscored 7-18. The away swing wasn’t all for naught though as the A’s split a 4-game series at Target Field prior to that with first place Minnesota. Oakland has been held to 2 runs or less in 2 of the last 3, but are an impressive 31-20 at home on the year.

Free Texas Rangers vs. Oakland Athletics MLB Prediction:
Regardless of how Thursday night’s tilt turns out there’s no reason not to back the A’s in this one. The value is great, and Texas has lost 9 of their last 10 heading into the series opener.
4* Free MLB Betting Pick: Oakland -110
Possibly a trap game but the A’s have much more to play for as they try to erase a 7.5 game deficit in the West.
