ANALYSIS: Despite Dane Dunning's looming regression, I still like the Rangers at this price to continue their homefield magic. Texas averages 7.04 runs at home and is going for its 11th win in the last 13 games overall. St. Louis has lost four straight and has scored more than three runs just once in the past 11 games. Cardinals starter Matthew Liberatore has never won on the road and owns a career 7.90 ERA away from Busch Stadium.

ANALYSIS: It's a battle of seriously mediocre teams. The Cubs have scored 15 runs over their last seven games, and they're 5-15 in their last 20 road games. The Angels are in a 3-7 skid but they do rank seventh in scoring at home (4.86 runs per game) and should benefit from the off day following a seven-game trip. With the pitching matchup about even, I'll back the rested home team.

ANALYSIS: At 41 years old, Adam Wainwright is nearing the end of the line. He has a 6.15 ERA and his expected numbers say that's no fluke. Now he faces MLB's top offense versus right-handed pitching. Texas is averaging an insane 7.15 runs at home. Back the Rangers to improve to 9-1 in their last 10 meetings with the Cards.
