Eovaldi has been elite in several metrics this year, including whiff rate (90th percentile) and walk rate (91st percentile). Backing him is a Texas bullpen ranked 10th in xFIP over the last two weeks (3.90). The Astros' offense is in a funk right now, ranking 28th in batting average since May 14 (.208). The Rangers, who were no-hit just two days ago, do not have the firepower to carry the Over by themselves.

Arrighetti's sensational start to 2026 is mostly smoke-and-mirrors, creating value in the Texas Rangers moneyline. I'd play it to -145. The Astros hurler's 1.32 ERA is belied by his 4.78 xERA, which ranks in the 26th percentile. He's not inducing enough batters to chase (29th percentile), leading to his eighth percentile walk rate. Once Arrighetti exits, an Astros bullpen ranked 29th in xFIP over the last two weeks (4.99) will take over.

Zack Wheeler may be off to a great start in 2026, but he’s about to experience a serious road bump at Chavez Ravine. The Dodgers boast a career .318/.427/.557 slash line against the veteran right-hander, and with Justin Wrobleski holding his own in the LAD rotation, I’m all over the home team on Friday night. Playable up to -130.

Junior Caminero continues to crush the baseball, hitting .409 over the last week with 13 home runs on the season. Ryan Weathers has allowed all eight of his homers this year to right-handed batters, which sets up well for the powerful Tampa Bay slugger.

Drew Rasmussen vs. the New York Yankees is a mismatch on paper — the righty is 4-1 with a 1.03 ERA and 51 punchouts in eight career games against New York. Coming off a thrilling comeback win on Friday, the division-leading Tampa Bay Rays are primed to keep the foot on the gas behind their dynamic arm to create more separation in the AL East.
