Betting Trends for vs


With how poorly the Rangers have been playing on the year this will be a good game for them to bounce back in. With the offenses being fairly well matched it will be easy for the Rangers to take control as Gonsalves is not that great of a pitcher for the Twins. Look for the Rangers to beat him up well enough to get him pulled early, but still contain the lead in this wild game. Final Score Prediction, Texas Rangers win 8-6.
