Texas Rangers

On June 30, 2025, the Texas Rangers will host the Baltimore Orioles at Globe Life Field in what marks the first game of their series. Both teams are struggling this season; the Rangers sit at 41-43, while the Orioles are at 36-47. Despite these records, the Rangers’ offense ranks 28th in MLB, showcasing a lack of firepower. In contrast, the Orioles’ offense is slightly better, ranking 20th, but they too have struggled to find consistency.

The pitching matchup features two left-handers: Patrick Corbin for the Rangers and Trevor Rogers for the Orioles. Corbin, ranked as the 316th best starting pitcher according to advanced metrics, has had a rough season with a 4-7 record and an ERA of 4.24. He projects to pitch 5.4 innings while allowing an average of 2.6 earned runs, but his tendency to allow 5.3 hits and 1.6 walks per outing is a concern. Meanwhile, Rogers has been more effective, with a sparkling ERA of 1.62 in just three starts. However, his xFIP of 3.74 suggests he may not maintain this level of performance.

The Rangers are currently favored slightly at -110 on the moneyline, indicating a close contest. Their best hitter has been productive recently, with a .333 batting average and 1.333 OPS over the past week, which might provide a spark. Conversely, the Orioles’ top hitter has been even more impressive, boasting a .444 average and 1.323 OPS during the same stretch.

With both offenses ranking among the bottom tier in MLB, the total for the game is set at 8.5 runs, reflecting the uncertainty surrounding scoring. This matchup could hinge on whether Corbin can effectively contain the Orioles’ hitters while Rogers continues his strong performance on the mound.

  Gunnar Henderson has been hot recently, raising his seasonal exit velocity of 92.9-mph to 99.5-mph over the last week.

• Marcus Semien – Over/Under 1.5 Total Bases (+130/-170)
