4:00 PM EST. The Rangers punched their ticket to the playoffs with a victory yesterday. The Rangers will very likely end up with the best record in the AL but they are a good fade today after the celebrations. Figure the Rangers to rest some starters here too. The pitching matchup of Colby Lewis versus Jharel Cotton favors the Athletics too. Cotton is coming off a two-hit, 0 walks, 6 K gem in six frames against the Astros while Lewis is coming off two months on the DL and two subsequent below average starts that the Rangers lost both times.

 This is a strong situational play that the price will allow us to step into.
