The PLAY: Texas Rangers -144 Mike Burrows (RHP), Jacob deGrom (RHP) Must Start
Even though Texas is 29th in MLB in home scoring, I like them on the ML here. They scored 10 runs last night, which was a far cry from Monday’s result - when the Rangers were no-hit in a 9-0 loss.
Yes, the 10 runs we saw the Rangers score here at home last night was definitely atypical. But they should be able to score more than a few tonight against Astros’ starter Mike Burrows, who has already given up 12 home runs in his 10 starts this season. Burrows has a 5.75 ERA, 1.53 WHIP and 5.37 FIP. Following him will be an Astros' bullpen with the highest ERA in all of MLB (5.47).
So, as atypical as last night was for the Rangers at the plate, let’s not kid ourselves … the combined no-hitter we saw from the Astros on Monday was far more atypical. The Rangers probably don’t need a ton of runs tonight with Jacob deGrom on the mound. Now I know deGrom is off back to back less than stellar starts. However, he’s still 12th in WHIP among qualified starters. Those L2 starts were also both on the road. At home this year, we’ve seen deGrom post a 1.14 ERA and 0.59 WHIP.
