Analysis
#969/970 ASA PLAY ON Over 8.5 Runs – Texas Rangers at San Diego Padres, Friday at 6:40 PM ET - Even though these two teams have not exactly been knocking the cover off the ball at the plate of late, this is still a great spot for an over as Kumar Rocker is off a rare better road start though he still allowed 8 baserunners in 5 innings of work so he was fortunate the damage was not more than 2 earned runs. He has struggled badly on the road this season and we expect Rocker will again get rocked in this one after a rare, slightly better road start! Rocker is 1-4 with an 11.34 ERA in his 5 road starts this season. As for Padres starter Randy Vasquez, he is coming off a bad start versus the Reds and he really labored in a number of his outings in the month of June. The Padres have scored an average of 5 runs in their last 10 home games. The Rangers, aided by some extra innings game in the stretch, have seen their confidence on the rise at the plate thanks to winning 5 of the last 8 games and scoring an average of 6 runs per game during this stretch. Look for both starting pitchers to struggle in this one and that sets the tone for a game that should get into double digits Friday in San Diego. Our computer math model projects a total of 11 to 12 runs here and even if it only gets to 9 or 10 that is still a winning ticket for us. We are going with the Over in this one.
