In a battle of struggling squads, the Rangers are looking to build on their recent victory over the White Sox, where they managed a narrow 2-1 win. Meanwhile, the Athletics are reeling after a heartbreaking 10-9 loss to the Reds in their last game.<\/p>\n<p>On the mound, Jon Gray is projected to start for the Rangers. Despite his recent struggles, including a disastrous outing where he allowed 7 earned runs in just 2 innings, Gray&#8217;s advanced metrics suggest he has been somewhat unlucky this season. With a 4.32 ERA and a 3.51 FIP, he is positioned as a low-strikeout pitcher against an Athletics lineup that ranks 2nd in the league in strikeouts. This matchup could favor Gray, especially given that the Athletics&#8217; offense has been inconsistent, ranking 21st overall and 27th in batting average.<\/p>\n<p>On the flip side, JP Sears will take the hill for Oakland. He has also faced difficulties, notably giving up 5 earned runs in his last start, which was only 4 innings long. Sears\u2019 projections indicate he\u2019s likely to allow 3.0 earned runs while striking out just 4.4 batters on average, which may not bode well against a Rangers lineup that, despite ranking 24th in overall offense, has shown moments of power.<\/p>\n<p>According to the leading MLB projection system, the projections lean toward the Rangers as significant favorites for this game, with a high implied team total of 4.62 runs. If the Rangers can capitalize on their pitching advantage and take advantage of the Athletics&#8217; struggles at the plate, they could very well secure another win in this series opener.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"margin: 3rem 0 0 0;\">Oakland Athletics Insights<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>\n<div style=\"display: block; margin: 0.75rem 0;\"><strong><\/strong><\/div>\n<div style=\"display: block; margin: 0.25rem 0;\">JP Sears will &#8220;start&#8221; for Oakland Athletics today but will fill the role of an opener and may not pitch more than a couple frames.<\/div>\n<div style=\"display: block; margin: 0.25rem 0 1.5rem;\"><small><em><strong>Explain:<\/strong> Openers have become a common strategy where a relief pitcher is used for the first (and maybe second) inning.
