Athletics-Rangers
(April 21, 2023) - The Rangers should be big favorites throughout this series at home. But the recent trends give no real edge to either team. It should be noted that the Under had only occurred four times in the last fifteen games of this series ahead of Friday.
Rangers-Royals
(April 18, 2023) - Texas was a big favorite here and, indeed, Game 1 Monday featured a line of -210. If you could find them for -190 or less, we'd consider pulling the trigger, then start exercising caution if the price appears under -160.
The Rangers were 10-3 against KC coming into this series. Texas had a record of 12-5 in the last 17 meetings in Kansas City.
There were four Unders in the last 14 meetings. Monday's game stayed well Under while Tuesday's went way Over the total.
The Rangers were 2-8 in their last 10 road games and 2-6 in their last 8 vs. American League Central heading into this series.
The Over was 7-2 in Rangers last 7 overall following Tuesday's game.
Wednesday's game features another low priced line of KC -110.
Rangers-Astros
(April 15, 2023) - The Rangers-Astros series began on Friday with Texas owning the better record (7-5). Houston was off to a very slow start, coming into the series with a 6-7 record. Rangers fans can't be too confident here knowing their team is just 15-40 in the last 55 meetings versus Houston. The Astros are 24-7 in the last 31 meetings with Texas not winning consecutive games over this span. The Rangers did get off to a nice start to the series with a 6-2 win in Game 1.
The Rangers are 5-1 in their last 6 games vs. a starter with a WHIP greater than 1.30.
The Under was 14-5 coming into this series.
The Under was 8-1 in Rangers last 9 road games vs. a right-handed starter.
Rangers are 34-77 in their last 111 road games vs. a right-handed starter.
We warned you to be careful Saturday as Hunter Brown has allowed just 3 hits on 16 at bats against Texas. Though a small sampling, it amounts to .188. He's also a right-hander and the Under is 8-1 in the Rangers last 9 road games versus a right-handed starter plus the Under in this series is 14-5, all of which is highlighted above.
More reason to consider the Under in Saturday's game: Houston Astros career statistics vs. Jon Gray: They are just 8 of 40 at bats without a home run. Gray currently owns a 3.00 ERA.
Friday's Game 1 did stay Under the 8.5 with 8 runs scored.
In the end though, Saturday's game ended up going Over. We're not sure this would have happened had Gray remained in the game. He had to exit in the third inning after 2 innings after being hit on his throwing elbow by a line drive. 5 runs were scored in the 7th by Houston and the game went Over the 7.5 number.
Sunday's game also hit the 10 and went Over. So much for that Under trend.
