Rangers vs. Angels NRFI/YRFI Prediction 7/8/24
Texas ranks 18th against RHP this season, while the Angels are 28th. Jon Gray’s record has been troubling this season but is in a good spot against the Angels offense in a friendly pitcher’s ballpark. Davis doesn’t have a large sample size in the MLB but has limited both sides of the plate to under a .290 wOBA. Seager is a threat from the left side but Texas has been largely quiet around him. I like the NRFI here with both offenses struggling against right-handers.

Rangers Lineup vs. Davis Daniel (R)
With Marcus Semien and Adolis García showcasing power against righties, indicated by Semien’s .130 ISO and García’s .202 ISO, the Rangers pose a significant threat. Semien’s .267 wOBA and García’s .294 wOBA against right-handed pitching suggest Texas’ offense is not as potent this season. Jon Gray’s performance against left-hand hitters could be pivotal, holding a 1.33 WHIP and a K% of 20.2, suggesting a balanced duel against the Angels’ lineup.
Angels Lineup vs. Jon Gray (R)
The Angels have hitters like Taylor Ward and Brandon Drury ready to exploit right-handed pitching, with Ward’s .308 wOBA and .180 ISO standing out. However, Miguel Sanó’s high strikeout rate (50%) could be a concern against Gray’s pitching prowess. Davis Daniel’s impressive 0.90 WHIP and 20.8 K% against similar hitters indicate a potential edge for the Angels, making this Rangers vs. Angels matchup a closely contested battle.
