📍 Wrigley Field
Line: Texas PK (+110) | Total: 6
Probable Starters: Nathan Eovaldi (TEX) vs. Justin Steele (CHC)
🔥 Lone Star Value: Why Texas is the Play
The Texas Rangers are cookin’ early in the season — and if you’re not riding this wave, you might be missing out on one of the best under-the-radar investments in April baseball. Winners of 8 of their last 10, the Rangers roll into Wrigley with momentum, a reliable veteran on the mound, and a whole lot of value at +110 on the moneyline.
Nathan Eovaldi might not be lighting up the stat sheet with run support behind him (just 1.5 runs per game over his last few outings), but what he’s doing is keeping hitters honest and games tight. Texas has only allowed 1.8 runs per game over their last 5 — and when you’re in a projected low-total matchup like this (O/U 6), that’s exactly the type of stability you bet on.
The Cubs, on the other hand, just coughed up an 8-7 loss to San Diego and have been leaky on the mound with Justin Steele allowing over 5 runs per start in his last 3. Asking him to hold down a focused, confident Rangers lineup might be a tall order tonight.
📊 Betting Angle:
🔍 Situational Edge:
Texas performs best in these road dog spots, and they’ve proven they can win outright in grind-it-out settings. The Cubs, while solid at Wrigley, haven’t exactly dominated — and with Steele giving up crooked numbers, tonight’s not the spot to back the chalk.
💵 The Pick:
Texas Rangers PK (+110) — You’re giving me the champs at plus money? With a 5-game heater and a lockdown pen? That’s value with a capital “V.”
Parlay Pete’s Take:
“When the champs are underdogs, it’s not a trap — it’s a gift. Wrap it. Cash it. Walk away smiling.”
