Texas Rangers plus-104 vs. Los Angeles Angels: $400 to win $416
Tonight’s starters in Texas have a combined one major league start. That belongs to the Rangers’ Nick Martinez, who was great in his debut, a 10-1 victory against the Oakland Athletics.
In that game, Martinez had a 3-0 lead before taking the mound, so there wasn’t exactly a lot of pressure. I’m a little concerned about that becasue the Angels’ bats woke up a bit yesterday with 12 hits in a 6-3 victory. However, I’m hoping that even if Martinez gets knocked around a little, the Rangers will be able to do the same to rookie Drew Rucinski, who gave up three hits in two innings during a relief appearance last week.
Standings: Keefer (76-71-2, $11,732), Bern (73-66-1, $10,246), Brewer (64-80-3, $1,345)
