LA Angels vs Texas Rangers Prediction

I’m on the Rangers here. I just think that the next stretch of baseball is going to be crucial for the Rangers to keep going if this team is going to have serious aspirations of postseason baseball and defending their World Series title. Max Scherzer’s been concerning that he hasn’t been striking out batters like we’re used to seeing, but he’s still a Gamer and I trust this Rangers lineup a lot more than I do the Angels right now. Give me the Rangers in this one.
