The Oakland A's look to snap a 9-game losing streak here tonight in Texas. The A's dropped Monday's contest in game one of this set with the Rangers, 1-2. They will turn to JP Sears to get things back in the win column. Sears has only three starts, but they have been very good starts. He's 2-0 with a 1.13 ERA and 0.750 WHIP. Sears has allowed no runs in two of his three outings this season. The Rangers have won three straight games including taking two of three from the Mariners. The Rangeers' will debut Kohei Arihara today as he makes his 2022 debut. Arihara was called up from Triple-A Round Rock where he had a 4.18 ERA in 18 games (14 starts). Sears has impressed me thus far and I'm not sure Arihara will do the same for the Rangers. I'll take the A's tonight.

 Two of the best pitchers in the American League will butt heads here tonight in the Chicago as Justin Verland and Dylan Cease take to the hill. Houston lost the opening game of this four-game set on Monday , 2-4. That snapped a four-game win streak for the Astros. Verlander has been great again this year with a 15-3 record in his 21 starts and a 1.85 ERA. Meanwhile, the White Sox have won four straight games as they moved into 2nd place in the AL Central, two-games back of the Guardians. Their Ace, Dylan Cease has been impressive all season with a 12-5 record and 1.96 ERA in his 23 starts. Just how good has Cease been? Well, consider he's allowed one run or no runs in 12 straight starts. That is impressive. I'll take the UNDER here and won't be surprised by a 1-0 or 2-1 victory.

Likely not again this season. I'll take a shot with the White Sox as your FREE play for Tuesday.
