Texas Rangers @ Oakland Athletics

Oakland can't hit; Texas can't pitch. Harrison lasted 1.2 innings last night, allowing six hits and four runs, and striking out one, on 49 pitches. I know exactly how bad he was; I started him in one of my fantasy sides.

Rather worryingly for the Rangers, Holland is on another of my teams and I'm going to start him tonight too, and I'm starting him for the same reason I started Harrison last night; the A's are in the bottom five in OPS against lefties and I don't believe they'll give McCarthy enough run support to win the game.

I'll back the Texas hitters.

Pick: Rangers @ 1.95
