SEATTLE -1½ -101 over Texas

10:10 PM EST. Bruised, battered, disgusted and dejected, the Rangers will limp into Seattle and attempt to play a set with the Mariners and frankly, we have no idea how this team will compete. The Rangers have dropped six straight. They just played in Oakland and were torched by a combined score of 22-7. The Rangers have scored 14 runs over their past seven games.  

Kolby Allard (LHP - TEX) will be facing the Mariners for a third time here. His two starts against them to this point resulted in a dud and a disaster. Three of his last four starts have resulted in disasters in which he allowed eight jacks over his last five starts. Dude has a 5.8% swing & miss rate over his last five starts so now it’s just a matter of where they fall. 

Logan Gilbert (RHP -SEA) is a rookie who made a big splash in July. He had a 3.76 ERA and 1.03 WHIP over five starts. His skills were even better: 32% K%, 6% BB%, 26% K-BB% and a 2.92 xERA.  His 14.0% swing & miss rate confirmed his upper-tier raw stuff. Limiting hard contact (91.0 mph exit velocity) will help him take a sustained step forward.Three of his seven starts at home have resulted in pure dominance. His skills are outstanding and he’ll now face a Rangers’ offense that has really struggled on the road, where they have a .217 BA and .641 OPS and that was mostly before they dumped their best players.
