Diamondbacks vs. Rangers Best Prop Bet

• MacKenzie Gore OVER 1.5 Earned Runs Allowed (-159) via DraftKings

The Diamondbacks have been far better against left-handed pitchers this season. They have an OPS of .758 while ranking eighth amongst all teams in wRC+ when facing lefties. Against righties, they have an OPS of .689 while ranking 26th in wRC+. I'm going to bet on them scoring at least two earned runs against the lefty, MacKenzie Gore.

Diamondbacks vs. Rangers Prediction and Pick

In today's edition of Betting $100 Every Day, I wrote about why I'm betting on the Diamondbacks to be leading after the fifth inning:

The Arizona Diamondbacks will face MacKenzie Gore of the Texas Rangers tonight, who is a left-handed pitcher with an ERA of 5.18 and a WHIP of 1.400. That could lead to the Diamondbacks getting off to a hot start tonight, as they have a wRC+ of 106 against lefties this season, far better than their mark of 86 against righties.

By betting on the first five innings moneyline, we can also avoid the Rangers' stellar bullpen. They lead the Majors in bullpen ERA at 2.68.

Pick: Diamondbacks F5 ML +116 via FanDuel
