Pick

I’m on the Rangers here. I just really like how Nathan Eovaldi has pitched in a lot of his recent outings, and while I would imagine we’re going to see a closer game than Saturday’s rout, I’m just not sure the Mariners can do enough at the dish to get ahead in this one. Bryce Miller is solid, but he’s struggled against the better teams on his plate so far and I look for more of the same here. Give me the Rangers.
