Reds vs Rangers Prediction

You can make a case for the Reds and the plus money, as they’re arguably the better team, and being at home doesn’t hurt. However, the Rangers have shown more signs of life and consistency despite the small sample sizes. I also like that Eovaldi has been able to get a game under his belt while Spiers is making his season debut. Eovaldi is an all-star caliber pitcher when he’s right. Spiers wasn’t good last season, and he hasn’t been good through 103.2 career innings, as he has a 5.64 ERA and 1.58 WHIP. Give me the Rangers and a reasonable price on Tuesday night.
