Texas Rangers vs Oakland Athletics Prediction, Odds and Picks for Thursday, 09/26/24

We have your Rangers vs A’s prediction right here as both teams look to secure a series win this afternoon. Neither team is competing for a playoff spot, but the A’s are playing for something a lot more than just a spot in the postseason. A rare sellout crowd is expected at the A’s stadium today as they look to celebrate the good memories they’ve had over the last 57 years as they’re set to play their final home game this afternoon against the Rangers.  

It will be the battle of the rookies today as Kumar Rocker gets ready to take the ball for the Rangers.  Rocker is 0-1 in two starts this season with a 2.57 ERA.  For the A’s, J.T. Ginn will take the mound who is 0-1 with a 4.40 ERA this season.  It’s hard to believe the Rangers won the World Series last year, and now they’re just playing for pride at this point.  The Rangers are averaging 4.1 runs per game in their last 27, and the A’s are right behind them at 4 runs per game.  Despite the Rangers having a pitching advantage this afternoon, I think the A’s have a lot to play for today in front of this rare sellout crowd.  Look for the A’s to play hard in this one and pick up a series win in their final game in Oakland, making them my best bet of the day.
