The Texas Rangers are favored to win the series opener against the Minnesota Twins at Globe Life Field. Despite Texas' inconsistency in the past week, they've won 10 of their last 15 games, while the Twins have lost 7 of their last 11. MacKenzie Gore, the Rangers' starter, boasts a stellar 2.08 ERA at home. Though Minnesota leads the all-time series, poor recent form and strong home pitching from Texas make the Rangers the recommended pick, including a run line of -1.5 and a total runs bet over 8.0.

Verdict

Texas have struggle for consistency over the past week, but they are the team in better form heading into this one.

Gore has been producing consistently at home too, so we expect the Rangers to draw first blood in this series.
