This is a 10* play on the ANGELS

We thought that the Angels were a good play last night and they won 5-2. We think they're an even better play tonight and thus will take them again on the money line. We mentioned going into yesterday's game that the Angels had gone just 7-16 this month and were a season-worst seven games below .500. But it was a good time to buy low as they had revenge, the better starter and home field advantage. All three of those factors remain present Wednesday. In fact, Texas will now be going with an opener for tonight's game, Emmanuel Clase, before going to originally scheduled starter Ariel Jurado. Clase owns a 4.35 ERA in 10 1/3 innings and has never "opened" before. Jurado has lost his last four starts and given up 22 runs in the last three. So it almost seems like the Rangers are conceding this one. The Angels Patrick Sandoval is still looking for that first win at the big league level and should not have much trouble with a lineup that has been held to four runs or less in seven of its last eight games. Texas is just 26-42 on the road this year. Play on LOS ANGELES
