Oakland at Texas
Just because a team is heavily favored does not mean the club will win every time. There are days teams don't give their best efforts, ace pitchers have an off day, relievers falter, hitters slump and/or costly errors are made. Laying heavy lumber on BIG MLB Favorites rarely pays off over a long season. Of the 37 Big Favorite at home laying -$2.00 or more this season 24 have been winners, 13 losers. So, if you backed each of the BIG favorites you'd be down -$698 on the campaign. To assume these BIG favorites will pick themselves up the following day can be damaging to betting accounts. These BIG favorites have posted a 5-7 mark the next outing depleting betting accounts by -$358. Rangers upended last night as -$2.05 favorites are the next losing BIG favorite trying to bounce back. Will they succeed ? time will tell but we do know they're facing a tough one. A's are scheduled to send Jarrod Parker (2-5, 6.04 ERA) to the hill. Parker is coming off his best effort of the season, allowing a run on four hits over seven innings and heads to the bump a perfect 3-0 life-time vs Texas along with a smart 6-2 TSR in GM-3 of a series.
