The Rangers opened this series with a 12-0 win Monday. They moved to 10-2 in August while the Halos dropped to 3-9 for the month.

Angels right-hander Lucas Gioloti has had a tough year. The team record with him as a starter is 8-16 and 1-6 in his last seven starts, with Giolito posting a 6.63 ERA during that stretch.

Texas left-hander Jordan Montgomery is a solid pitcher and he has given up only four runs with 11 Ks over 12 innings in his first two starts since coming over from the Yankees.

Sure, this is a lot of juice to pay, but the Rangers are 19-6 as a home favorite laying -150 or more and 13-3 as a home favorite laying -170 or more.
