Free MLB Pick
Both starters have okay historical stats versus tonight’s opponent, but Ivan Nova hasn’t started against the Rangers since 2013 and Matt Harrison hasn’t faced the Yanks since 2012. Nova has moderate stats since his return but his away stats are not great allowing six runs in 12 innings on 16 hits. Harrison looked really good in his latest pitching seven scoreless innings in Colorado, but got smacked for six runs in four innings in his only home start. The Yankees and the Rangers have been tearing it up recently with New York averaging 5.66 runs per game in their last six and Texas 7.33. The Yankees have a run of four straight OVERS and the Rangers have six in their last eight.
