Diamondbacks vs Rangers Pick, Betting Analysis

Editor’s Note: This written pick is a transcription from today’s episode of the Payoff Pitch Podcast.

Unders are now 16-2-1 at Globe Life Field this season, and 113-64-4 since the beginning of 2024, with an ROI creeping up toward 25%.

The totals continue to be priced too high on a daily basis. This is now the best pitcher’s park in baseball. Even the game last night, there were four or five balls that died at the warning track — all of those are home runs in any other park. The game finished 1-0.

Zac Gallen is a concern for me. His strikeout rate has dropped drastically this season, and his expected results have tanked.

MacKenzie Gore has the higher ceiling of the two. But he’s been shaky in his recent starts as well. Today might be a tough matchup, as Arizona’s lineup projects better against Southpaws.

Pick: Diamondbacks ML (+106 or Better) | Under 8 (-115 or Better)
