Orioles vs Rangers Prediction
I’ve bashed Corbin a lot over the years as he’s been one of the worst starters in baseball, but he’s been solid this season with a 3.91 ERA and 1.25 WHIP. He’s allowed three or fewer earned runs in 12 of his 13 starts. Credit where it’s due. Rogers has dealt with injuries and consistency issues throughout his career, and he’s pitched just 8.2 innings this season. Rogers allowed five hits and three runs in 2.1 innings against the Rays. The Rangers have the edge on the mound, as crazy as that sounds. Give me the road team on Monday.
