Rangers offense is struggling a bit averaging 6.5 hits per game and 23.5 rpg in their last 4. They're coming home after a 10-game road trip and will be facing a pitcher in Bedard who has been improving with each start for the Red Sox. On the other hand, Wilson will be facing a Boston lineup missing Youk, Big Papi, and now Ellsbury who is listed as very doubtful. The O/U is 15-25 in Boston's games against left-handed starters this year and 5-7 when these 2 teams meet in Texas. I see this one being low-scoring as well.
Good luck!

i dont like the play of all the under games i think you pick the riskiest one
i know they are not doing well the last games but its still Bos and Tex they can hit 2 or 3 HR in any game.
vs two inconcistent pitchers in a stadium that favor batters
plus Tex bullpen i think is a pass
have you seen both pitchers number against each other teams Wilson has better numbers against Bos than Erik vs Tex and considering the Boston line up right now
dont you think its a better play Tex 1st 5 innings..???
you know im a big fan and i ride in that 6-0 last week, but i just think playing Under with this teams its too risky...

2 stud pitchers on the mound and 2 offenses with injuries.
Rangers BP is a lot better than their year-long rankings since they acquired some help prior to the trade-deadline. I like this one to stay under
