Afternoon SITUATIONAL DESTRUCTION (3:05 EST START!)
(MLB) Kansas City vs. Texas, 04/23/2017 11:05 AM, Score: 2 - 5
Money Line: -180.00 Texas (Home)
Result: Win
This is an 8* SITUATIONAL DESTRUCTION on the Texas Rangers.

We think that Yu Darvish and the home side are worth the price of admission in this spot. Darvish is 1-2 with a 3.28 ERA, while counterpart Jason Hammel is 0-1 with a 4.60. ERA. Texas has taken the first three in this series and it now has its sights set on the four-game sweep. Note that Darvish is 1-1 with a 2.25 ERA in three career starts against the Royals. Hammel looked decent in his last start, giving up one run over six frames in a 2-1 loss to the Giants, but note that he's 1-2 with a pedestrian 4.18 ERA in six appearances lifetime against the Rangers. Kansas City is struggling with production, which doesn't bode well in facing Darvish here. Lay the price, play on TEXAS.
