From Rotoworld: Ramirez surrendered four earned runs over five innings Tuesday in a loss to the Twins. Ramirez walked two and gave up seven hits while falling to 7-7 on the year. The 28-year-old right-hander has allowed 10 runs — nine earned — over his last two starts and has watched his season ERA climb to 4.73. The ongoing inconsistency limits his fantasy streaming appeal.
Darvish was tagged for seven runs and 11 hits in 4 1/3 innings by the Red Sox on Tuesday. Darvish ran into a hot offense tonight and tied his career highs for runs and hits allowed (the only other time he gave up 11 hits was also against Boston in 2012).
Bet Today’s Angels vs. Rangers Game
OUR PREDICTION: The Rangers have won eight of Darvish’s last nine starts against the Angels and are 5-1 in his last six home outings against Los Angeles. The Angels, meanwhile, are just 3-7 in their last 10 games in Texas and 2-5 in their last seven games against the Rangers overall. Darvish should bounce back today from his poor outing.
SUNDAY MLB PREDICTION: TEXAS RANGERS -1.5 (+110)
