Rating: 10/10*
The Texas Rangers took an 8-4 beating here at Target Field yesterday. I think they'll do much better Saturday with Cole Hamels on the mound.
The Rangers are 26-5 in Hamels' (5-1, 4.01 ERA) last 31 starts vs. a team with a losing record, and the Minnesota Twins with their 51-55 record fit the bill. Hamels held the Twins to three runs on seven hits in 6 2/3 innings of a 14-3 win on April 26. Note that Joe Mauer is 0-for-12 lifetime against the southpaw and the Twins are 1-9 in their last 10 against left-handed starters.
The Twins hand the ball to Kyle Gibson (6-8, 6.08 ERA) who is 3-5 with a 6.71 ERA home at Target Field on the season, and he has struggled with his command all season giving up 45 walks through 94 2/3 innings of work, and his 1.71 WHIP aint pretty. The current Rangers are batting a combined .304 through 102 at bats against the right-hander.
My selection is a 10* play on Texas Rangers ML
