Tips and predictions for the Yankees at the Rangers

forecast

Yankees 5, Rangers 4

Money line

The YANKEE (-116) are a strong player behind the diminutive Stroman, who has cashed in on the road this season. He has a record of 5-1 and 2.56 ERA on the road in 12 starts while allowing just 3 HR, as opposed to a mark of 5-5, 4.86 ERA and 15 HR in 14 starts at home.

The Rangers (-102) have been a little better lately, but beating the 80-win Yanks twice in three games is a tall order. Texas just hasn’t been very consistent.

Running Line/Against the Spread

If you’re a little more conservative, the Rangers +1.5 (-172) is just too expensive for me. If you’re betting on Texas, just go for the max bet.

Over/Under

OVER 8.5 (-118) is worth not playing too much, so play no more than half a unit.

We’ve had 4 overs in a row in this series, so why stop now? Both Stroman and Eovaldi have ERAs of 4.72 or higher after the break, so we could see a lot of offensive power, especially early on.
