Wyatt Langford has some extra motivation today as he faces his former college teammate, Brandon Sproat. Few players in MLB are likely more familiar with Sproat than Langford. He's hit 16 of his 21 HRs against RHPs and has performed slightly better on the road. We set Langford's line at +405 to homer.

Wow, I was spectacularly wrong on the Mets on Friday. I had forgotten the game even started and it was already 6-0 when I looked. This is obviously the biggest game of the season then for NYM. Humiliated at home for a seventh straight loss and about to lose the last WC spot. Texas starter Patrick Corbin has been absolutely blasted in each of his past three away starts. I always back desperate teams. Maybe the Mets are also broken in locker room, but they should definitely be desperate today and all hands on deck in the bullpen. Scoring first would be big -- Pete Alonso has great splits off Corbin.

We've had to do a double-take on this price, as this seems an awfully heavy load for a Mets team that is losing its grip on an NL wild card by losing seven straight, and Saturday will send another rookie to the mound, this one (Brandon Sproat) making just his second career start. The rookie thing didn't work so much for New York on Friday when Jonah Tang got battered by the playoff-seeking Rangers, who are as hot (wins in five straight and 12 of 15). as the Mets are cold. Yes, vet Patrick Corbin has had a few shaky efforts lately, but Texas has also won in his last three starts. Play Rangers on Money Line
