Rangers 7, Rockies 3

Moneyline

PASS.

Taking the Rangers moneyline isn’t worth the risk at over -200 odds.

Run line/Against the spread

RANGERS -1.5 (-110)

Texas is swinging a hot bat and getting Seager back in the lineup recently has helped. The Rangers are tied for the 4th-best wRC+ (112) against right-handed pitching and have won by 5-plus runs in the 1st 2 games.

Rockies at Rangers prediction and picks

Prediction

Rangers 6, Rockies 5

Money line

AVOID. The pitching in this one leaves much to be desired, and there aren’t a lot of areas to leverage.

Run line/Against the spread

Texas may bounce back and start pitching a little better, but the ROCKIES +1.5 (-145) is a decent play.

Over/Under

The best play in this game is the OVER 10.5 (-102). These clubs may well constitute 40% of the bottom-five bullpens in MLB. Figure on a healthy number of runs in this one, five or six days into the season, with some short-spring fatigue creeping in and behind this lackluster starting match-up.

Rockies at Rangers prediction and picks

Prediction

Rangers 5, Rockies 3

Money line

AVOID but keep an eye on the price for the Rangers. A tag at -130 or better can compete with the run-line play below.

Run line/Against the spread

Colorado usually struggles away from home. The Rockies went just 26-54 (.325) abroad last season.

Mix in some slight Gomber fade, and TEXAS -1.5 (+145) has some leverage.

Over/Under

These clubs have several scoring and run-prevention components that deserve a wait-and-see approach. The pricing here makes for a slight lean on the UNDER 9.5 (-107). However, it’s a play worth a partial unit wager at best.
