Randy’s Pick

I’m not thrilled with this pitching matchup, as Jon Gray and Patrick Sandoval have been hit or miss this season with ERAs over 4 and having walk issues. However, the Rangers are coming off a strong week and are in the driver’s seat for a division crown. The Angels have thrown in the towel on the season as most of their top players aren’t playing, and the losses are getting out of control. No excuses for the Rangers here. Give me the Rangers and the RL for max betting value.
