    OAK (Gio) vs. TEX (Harrison), 2:05 p.m. Wednesday

    Gio has given up just 7 ER in his last 31 IP vs. the Rangers.
    Harrison is 0-3 with a 10.97 ERA in his last 3 starts.

    OAK is -101. Nellie Cruz on the DL. Great opportunity to pound the A's here, or are the Rangers the play?

    Toss up. Not a great spot in my opinion. Gio is gonna put together a quality start and get into the 7th with 2 or less runs in most cases here. Are you willing to bet that Oakland scores enough runs to make it relevant?

    All signs point to a play on Gio, but all signs usually doesn't mean anything when betting baseball.

    That's where the Harrison factor comes into play. He's been a gascan lately. Does it continue? Oakland just pounded him 10 days ago; he didn't even make it through the second inning. Gio beat him 7-2 that day at -129 at home.

    The wind coming in from the South has been contributing to the recent run of Overs @Ranger home games. I would wait to see the wind situation.

    If its blowing south tomorrow, bet over.

    I haven't a missed Harrison start thus far this season. He is really struggling right now, but I'd still be careful. Even without Hammy/Cruz, the Rangers lineup is still way better than the A's.

    I can't hit the over with the A's but I take Gio with this weak lineup that the rangers have out there

    not a big fan of going against a pitcher that got blown up by the same team recently...especially a weak hitting group like the A's...that and i just hate betting the A's (for or against) seems like they always find a way to fukk me.......do think they probably the right side just rather not play it...GL everyone

    like the play, A's are also great during the day. Big pitching edge for the A's.

    Harrison didn't look bad his last game against the Yankees. He only gave up 2 ERs in 6 innings

    Game over...

    It'll take the A's a lifetime to go score 6 runs.

    Not ever shocked to see Gio lose his control like this. Any pitcher with that arm slot can struggle from time to time. Tough spot.
