Today’s best games to watch, the best bets, ratings: rays with angels, paadres at diamondbacks and more
Two hopes for the American league playoffs open a series of three games when the New York Yankees and the Texas Rangers compete on Monday at the Globe Life Field in Arlington, Texas.
The Yankees (60-52) are in shock after being swept away in a series of three games by the suddenly hot marlins. Since June 13, New York has a 18-27 file in its last 45 games. In first place for a large part of the first three months of the season, the Bronx Bombers are now in third place in Al East, 4½ games behind the Blue Jays of the division.
Meanwhile, the Rangers (58-55) have lost five of their last seven games and are third in the Al West, 4½ games behind Astros first place. Texas returns to Arlington after abandoning three games in a key series of four games against the Seattle rival division.
If the season ended today, New York would win Joker’s second point in the AL. Texas, however, is two games behind the navy for the third and last place at the Joker.
Monday’s launcher match includes two left-handers: Yankees All-Star Max Fried (12-4, 2.62 ERA) and the veteran of Rangers Patrick Corbin (6-7, 3.78). Fried seeks to become the first winner of 13 games in the majors. During his last departure, he only granted two points deserved in 6⅔ sleeves in a 7-5 victory against the Rays. The victory ended a personal sequence of two games for Fried. Meanwhile, Corbin was on a momentum in the last month. During his last five departures, he has a 2-0 sheet with an MPM of 2.30. He has not lost a decision since June 23.
New York is a favorite of the silver line -141 Monday according to the latest MLB ratings, while Texas is an outsider +119. Although the Yankees-Road game is the attraction of a marquee in the sports landscape on Monday, there are other options on a 16-game MLB slate.
