Texas Rangers vs. Kansas City Royals Prediction: Can We Trust Jacob deGrom and the Rangers?

We are attacking a market that we loved last year. Let's get into my prediction, pick, and odds for this MLB matchup.

Texas Rangers vs. Kansas City Royals Pick

1u - Rangers 1st 5 Innings/Moneyline (-140) Bet $140 to collect $240 DraftKings has the best odds; click here to bet

Jacob deGrom owes us after the NRSI earlier in the season. He looked much better last start against the Baltimore Orioles, allowing just one run through six innings of play. Tonight I like him to dominate, but also that the Texas Rangers bats to stay hot.

Texas Rangers vs. Kansas City Royals Prediction

Last night we saw Texas massacre Kansas City 11-2. The game prior for Texas, we saw them score run eight runs in that contest as well. 19 runs in two games is outstanding, and they get a plus matchup here in Jordan Lyles. Kansas City allowed five runs last game to the Toronto Blue Jays in 5.2 innings pitched. The Texas bats are 17-51 against him, which is good for a .333 batting average.

deGrom owns these Kansas City batters. The Royals bats are 4-38 against him for a .105 batting average and not even one RBI. deGrom is due to a masterclass shutout game, and this could be it. Kansas City bats .175 against righties on the year and arguably gets the scariest one here today.

Texas are -285 favorites, and this is a sneaky way of getting exposure to them. All we need is to lead after five innings and to win outright. deGrom to record a win would be my favorite pivot, but that bet does have the downside of losing if he gets hurt or Kansas City ties the game late. To find this bet on DraftKings, go over to “Game Parlays” on the far right and scroll down. Let's improve on our 11-2 record, and let's roll!
