- This is a play on the TEXAS RANGERS for our MLB Friday Sweet Spot. The Rangers snapped a 12-game losing streak with a 5-4 victory against the Diamondbacks on Tuesday before dropping the finale of the two-game series Wednesday. It has been a disappointing stretch as the Texas lineup has the only negative WAR in the majors in the second half and the Rangers are the only team with less than 10 home runs in the second half as well, with just 4. The Mariners are 1-7 in their last eight games when their opponent scores two runs or less in their previous game while is Texas is 37-23 in its last 60 home games with a team slugging percentage .410 or worse on the season. Here, we play against American League road teams with a team batting average of .255 or worse on the season, after allowing seven runs or more in three straight games. This situation is 56-14 (80 percent) over the last five seasons. 10* (920) Texas Rangers
