Texas has scored at least five runs in five of the last six games. The Rangers just faced Bryan Woo, who struggled against them when they met over a week ago, allowing three runs in five innings. Seattle is, currently, one of the worst offensive teams in the league, failing to score more than two runs in three of their last four games. They’re batting under .200 against left-handers, and facing MacKenzie Gore, who’s allowed a combined five runs in his last three starts. The Rangers are also top-10 in the league offensively on the road.

DraftKings. Jumping on this line before we se see lineups, as the Mariners batting order could be pretty messy today. Already a weak hitting team against lefties, they are likely to feature their backup catcher today, and Brendan Donovan could be held out with an injury once again. Eve at full strength, Mackenzie Gore had his way with this lineup two weeks ago (5 innings, 9 strikeouts) and has 30 punchouts in 21.1 innings this season. I don’t love backing a pitcher giving a team the second time in a short span, but the Mariners league worst .465 OPS, and sixth highest K% of 25.6% against southpaws alleviates those fears.

MacKenzie Gore (2-1, 3.00 ERA) faces Bryan Woo (0-2, 2.16). Both pitchers are capable, but the batting orders aren’t the same. Over the last 15 days, the Rangers own a big .802 OPS vs. right-handers. The Mariners vs. left-handers: .363. Gore has allowed four runs over the first five innings of his four starts, Woo has allowed six. Good spot to back a sizeable dog.
