Our Tampa Bay Rays vs Texas Rangers Prediction
The Rays are the clear favorite in this game; however, they still look to be the best betting option. This goes directly to the home/away splits between the two starting pitchers. Gore has made 12 away starts this season, having allowed 39 earned runs over 58.1 innings. Seymour, on the other hand, has made 19 home appearances (5 starts), in which he has allowed 19 runs (18 earned) over 41.2 innings.
While Seymour has not had many starts at home this season, he has still been serviceable enough, compared to Gore, who cannot be trusted when pitching on the road. Because of that, our Tampa Bay Rays vs Texas Rangers prediction is: Tampa Bay Rays ML.
