Mike Lundin‘s Rangers vs. Royals Free Pick July 15, 2017
Rating: 5/10*
Start Time: July 15, 2017, 7:15 PM
Each of the last seven and nine of the last 10 head-to-head meetings between the Texas Rangers and the Kansas City Royals have gone under the total, last night’s 5-3 Texas victory included. We should see another low-scoring encounter Saturday night.
Left-hander Danny Duffy (5-5, 3.76 ERA) will toe the rubber for the Royals. He is 1-1 with a 3.90 ERA in five career starts against the Rangers and pitched 7 1/3 scoreless innings against Texas on April 20. The 28 year old has posted a 2.76 ERA in five home starts on the season and under is 6-2 in Duffy’s last eight starts overall.
The Rangers turn to another southpaw in Cole Hamels (4-0, 3.51 ERA) who is 3-1 with a 3.67 ERA in four career against the Royals, 3-0 with a 1.27 ERA since joining the Rangers. He tossed 7 2/3 shutout innings of three-hit ball against the Angels his last time out.
Neither the Royals (.250) or the Rangers (.228) are hitting southpaws very well. Let’s go with the under.
