The Texas Rangers are 4-1 in their last 5 meetings with the Kansas City Royals.
The Rangers offer an even-money payout at +100 moneyline on Caesars Sportsbook if they can beat the Royals again in Thursday’s series finale.
The Rangers will send Kumar Rocker (2-5, 3.54 ERA) to the mound as they look to clinch the series against the Royals. Rocker has maintained a 3.28 ERA over his last five starts, throwing a pair of shutouts against Arizona on May 13 and Kansas City on May 30 before giving up two earned runs over five innings in a 3-2 win over Cleveland on June 5.
The Royals will start Michael Wacha (4-4, 3.44 ERA), who has surrendered 10 earned runs between his last two starts. Wacha has not delivered a win for Kansas City in his last five starts, in which he has registered a 4.85 ERA. Against the Rangers, Wacha aims for a better outing after conceding six earned runs over five innings in a 3-6 loss on May 31.

Our Kansas City Royals vs Texas Rangers Prediction
The Rangers will win the series behind another solid outing from Kumar Rocker and their impeccable bullpen.
Rocker, who blanked the Royals through six innings the last time around, will continue to torment Kansas City, which only averages 3.5 runs per game on a .228 BA at home.
Wacha’s horrible start against the Rangers, which was followed by another disappointing stint against Minnesota, should serve as a warning sign that he will most probably falter again against the Rangers.
Even if Wacha managed to hold the Rangers’ offense, Kansas City couldld still lose a game as long as its bullpen keeps giving up runs late in the match. The Royals' bullpen has posted a 4.44 ERA over their last five games.
