About the only advantage Texas has here is being at home and I'm not sure that is much of one with the Rangers 7-12 at Globe Life Park and the Angels 12-6 away. Overall, LA looks to move to 12 games over .500 for the first time since July 26, 2015. Noah Syndergaard should be jacked up to pitch in Arlington as he's from Mansfield, Texas, about 15 miles away. "Thor" has worked at least five innings and allowed three-or-fewer runs in each of his first five games for LA. He is the first Angels pitcher to do that since Andrew Heaney (first seven starts) in 2015.
The Rangers were able to get some runs yesterday but their bats have seriously been struggling overall. These teams played a 4-game series in Texas earlier this season and the Angels won three of four. Jon Gray just hasn’t been able to find his footing yet this season missing multiple starts with various injuries. He pitched well in his last start on May 9th but he only made it 4.1 innings. The Rangers bullpen has actually been much better lately too to counteract that, but the Angels bullpen has been even better. Take the Angels to stay hot.
The Angels are a great team. They are 9-3 in their last 12 games and now they have Noah Syndergaard on the mound who has only allowed eight runs in five starts. Rangers starter Jon Gray has only pitched in road games this season. He has a 5.51 ERA and that should only increase in this game. The Angels batters should have no problem putting up runs in this game. Take the Angels.
