    Anyone siding with the Rangers today?

    Questioning if they get swept at home? Looking since 2004 season, the Rangers are 20-9 when trying to avoid a three game sweep at home. Ave win margin by 2 runs. They went 2-0 in this spot last year (Feldman v. Floyd) and (Holland v. Santana)

    Looking at how the Rangers perform revenging a <=1 loss. In fact they have done remarkably well revenging a close game. Since the 2011 season they are 34-8 (14-3 home, 20-5 road) with an average win margin of 2.6 runs. They are 5-2 against the Athletics in this spot..(Holland v. Colon May 14th 2013 being the most recent).

    What do you good fellas think? Ya, no, maybe so?

    Even though i like Tex as well my 1st rule of thumb is to never bet against a rookie pitcher or any pitcher that hasnt started against a team, usually bad results come from this.

    Parker has been no beauty this season, yet his last four have seen improvement especially his 7 inning, 1 run, 4 hit over KC .

    The only thing I could find on Ross Wolf, aside pitching for Oak in 2010 is his 1-1, 1.85 ERA in six starts with Triple - A Round Rock

    Rangers should win today.

    I am picking the rangers today as well. The pitching matchup concerns me a little. But after 2 days of no offense, I expect the Rangers bats to come alive today.

    ya this is a tough one. goin with the rangers tho. i have nothing convincing to say as to why im going with them, esp. since they have a rookie pitcher today, just one of those gut feeling bets i guess. GL to ya tho.
