Free MLB Pick
After winning 7 of 8 games the Rangers have tailed off going 3-4 over their last 7 games. Their starter for tonight’s game Yovani Gollardo has been ultra-sharp in his last four getting the Q start in all four games, but he has poor numbers against the Dodgers in his career with the roster hitting a lifetime .344 against him. Dodgers’ starter Carlos Frias has also been sharp in recent games with 3 consecutive Q starts and it will be the first time seeing him for all but one of the Rangers. The Dodgers are a sizzling 5-1 in their last 6 and are the play here.
