Why The Rangers Could Cover The Spread

Dunning has been very good this season. He has a 3.21 season ERA, 1.15 WHIP, and opponents are batting just .236 off him. Dunning has started off the month of August nicely. He has thrown 13 2/3 innings, allowed just four runs on eight hits, and struck out 17. He is usually not much of a strikeout pitcher, but August has been good to him. The Giants have the fourth most total strikeouts in the MLB this season, so Dunning should be able to rack up a few more in this one. If he can have another start where he punches out six or seven, and shuts down the Giants, the Rangers will cover the spread.

Texas has one of the best offenses in the MLB. They have the fifth most home runs, second highest slugging percentage, and second most runs scored. They drive the ball from gap-to-gap often, and their lineup is scary. Webb is a good pitcher, but the Rangers will take advantage of any mistakes left over the heart of the plate. As long as they do that, the Rangers will cover the spread.

Why The Giants Could Cover The Spread

Webb's ground ball rate is 61.5 percent. He does not allow many batters to hit the ball in the air. As mentioned, the Rangers crush the ball. Texas has the second lowest ground ball rate in the MLB. It will be a battle of a ground ball pitcher vs. fly ball hitters. If Webb can keep the Rangers out of the air, the Giants will have a great chance at covering the spread.

Webb is an absolute workhorse, and he is much better when pitching at home. At Oracle Park, Webb has a better oBA, ERA, K/9, and opponents hit for significantly less power. All of these numbers favor the Giants as the Rangers a are a team that wants to put the ball in the air and drive it to the wall. With Webb's ground ball rate, and his success at home this season, the Giants have a good chance to cover the spread.

Final Rangers-Giants Prediction & Pick

Both pitchers are having great seasons. This matchup is going to be fun, and the game should be a low scoring one. However, when it comes to the pick, It is very hard to bet against Logan Webb when he is pitching in San Francisco. With that said, I think this game is going to be close, and it could very well end in a one-run game. The Rangers are the underdogs, so I will take Texas to cover the spread, and possibly win.

Final Rangers-Giants Prediction & Pick: Rangers +1.5 (-178), Under 8 (-110)
