Texas +105 over Baltimore

4:05 PM EST. All through April, Andrew Heaney (LHP - TEX) didn’t even look the part of an end-rotation arm (4.97 ERA, 1.42 WHIP). However, he’s been getting progressively sharper, thus, now would be a good time to get behind him. Heaney is showcasing an improved fastball and an effective new slider. His low line drive rate of 16% suggests batters are not making hard contact against him. Over his last 29 frames covering five starts, Heaney has walked 11 and struck out 32 batters with an xERA of 3.69 with an outstanding batter ball profile of 53% grounders, 12% line-drives and 35% fly-balls.

Dean Kramer (RHP - BAL) has been performing a high-wire act all season long. Here are six good reasons to fade him 1) Bad K-BB%; 2) weak swing and miss offers little hope for command growth; 3) Bad xERA that is 1½ runs higher than his ERA over his past five starts; 4) History of bad numbers; 5) Regression is just around the corner, and it will be bad; 6) Overvalued. Kremer put up decent skills last August, which had us momentarily interested, but they were a mirage as are his numbers in May. Texas is seeing beach balls at the plate these days so as a pooch against Kremer, they become extremely playable.
