NRFI Best Bet Today #1: New York Yankees vs Texas Rangers (-130)

Back when the Yankees and Rangers met in New York in late May only five runs were scored per game in their three-game series as we’ll look at a Yankees vs Rangers NRFI to occur in Texas tonight.

It’s a lefty vs lefty battle as Max Fried takes the mound for New York. Although he’s struggled as of late, Fried still holds a 2.88 road ERA and current Rangers batters have collectively hit just .167 against him in their career’s.

Fried hasn’t allowed a first inning run in 16 of his 22 starts this season as he’ll go up against Patrick Corbin tonight.

The Rangers starter has seen new life with his new team this season sporting a 3.10 home ERA while not allowing a first inning run in 17 of 20 starts on the season.

Both the Yankees and Rangers sit bottom five in team batting average since the all-star break so let’s play on a Yankees vs Rangers NRFI today at -130 odds and first pitch at 8:05PM ET.

NRFI Best Bet Today #2: Tampa Bay Rays vs Los Angeles Angels (-130)

The Rays kickoff a 12-game road trip tonight in Anaheim taking on the Angels who send lefty Yusei Kikuchi to the mound.

His last home start went array but overall on the season he sports a 2.48 home ERA while allowing opposing Rays hitters to collectively bat just .198 against him lifetime.

Kikuchi hasn’t allowed a first inning run in 15 of 23 starts this season including two straight with the Rays coming in as the second worst first inning scoring team on the road.

They’ll send newly acquired Adrian Houser to the mound sporting a 2.42 ERA in July and a 2.10 ERA on the season.

Houser hasn’t allowed a first inning run in 10 of 11 starts this season with the Angels not scoring in the first inning in four straight games now.
