Yes, you read it correctly, 5 dimes on a road favorite, but I am more confident on this play then I was on the Angels, albeit they had to win in the bottom of the 9th by 1 run. This is the best line I could get, but it is much better then lines out there now as I got it last night as soon as my local put it up.
Kazmir OWNS the Rangers. In 6 career starts against him, he does not have a loss, and the (Devil)Rays are 6-0 against the Rangers in his starts. He is 3-0 with a career 1.94 ERA against Texas and also has a 2.57 ERA at Arlington. This season, with the big bats of Texas, he still is at the top of his game as he is 2-0 with a 1.80 ERA. I locked this play in last night, as an action for Ranger pitching and Kazmir MUST START, because after looking around, Nippert was had the possibility of starting, and it looks like he is. This guy is a joke. He has a 7.03 ERA and he is the long relief guy. I thought it would be a great time to bet the Rays even if he weren't going to start as they were shutout yesterday and are the type of team to bounce back and return the favor the next night. The Rangers' pitching has been AWFUL as we all know, and even without Crawford and Longoria, I think this team can hold their own. I am with out a doubt cheering for them down the stretch as I have given up on my Yankees and don't want to see the Sox win the East. Anyway, back to the Rangers' hitting against Kazmir. In 73 at bats against him, they only have 11 hits, 1 home run(Kinsler), 7 RBIs(4 from Young), 5 walks, 24 strikeouts, a batting average of .151, and an on base % of .198.
Young .182 (2-11)
Kinsler .100 (1-10)
Bradley .222 (2-9)
Hamilton .167 (1-6)
That covers up the big guys. The Rangers are only 7-14 in game 3's after a win. The umpire (Fieldin Culbreth) has the road team with a winning record at 15-10 this season(For people who are into that kind of stat). Now really expect B.J. Upton do have an outstanding game with a few RBIs and a stolen base and at least 1 double. The reason why I say that is because this is the 2nd time that Maddon has benched Upton for not hustling, and he will surely proove to his manager, and teamates that he does care about this team and will really break out for at least tonight. The Rays normally come back strong after their bats were a bit silent the previous game. Finally, the Rays will mess up that tall Righty that the Rangers are sending to the mound tonight. The bullpen, even without Percival obviously favors the Rays, even on the road, and I expect them to finish off this 10 game road west coast road trip with a BANG and come home with an impressive 7-3 record.
