Our Texas Rangers vs Cleveland Guardians Prediction

This game is not an easy one to predict. On one hand, Cleveland has the better pitcher that has been hard to hit and doesn’t give up too many runs on the road, but Texas has been hitting the ball well (.280 BA over the last week). But Texas has a starter who is kind of a Jekyll-and-Hyde type. He’s had solid outings, like his last one. However, he’s also been hit hard and chased early, too. I like two bets for this game: the UNDER because both pitchers have been good of late, and I don’t trust the Guardians' lineup to go off against Rocker. But I’m taking the Texas moneyline, because this is a winnable game for Texas at home and I like the price.
