This is a 1* Free Play on the Texas Rangers.
The visiting Rangers are worth the price here with their best on the hill in Yu Darvish (10-6, 2.82), the right-hander held the Indians to one run over seven innings in his last start but didn't factor into the decision. Note that Darvish is 4-2 with a 3.00 ERA and 0.84 WHIP in eight games started against the Astros lifetime. The Rangers are also 6-2 in games against the Astros when Darvish was the starter. The home side will start Scott Feldman (5-8, 4.13 ERA) who is coming off his best start of the season; Feldman limited Toronto to one run run in a complete game win on Sunday. Note though that Feldman is an unremarkable 1-1 with a pedestrian 4.07 ERA in four starts versus the Rangers over his career. Texas was unable to hold on a lead yesterday but I think can bounce back here, Darvish has put together three quality starts in a row and doesn't seem fazed that his team is one of the worst this season. The Astros meanwhile do not have a home field advantage with a 27-33 mark this year, and that's just what the doctor ordered for the visitors as Texas is 12-5 at Houston the last three seasons. Lay the modest price to get the better pitcher.
