Yermin Mercedes led the way with a perfect 4-for-4 at the plate with three RBI, while Yoan Moncada was 3-for-4 with a home run in the eighth inning. As a team, the White Sox was 8-14 with RISP and racked up 14 strikeouts from their pitchers. In regards to tonight’s game, the Rangers are hoping that Gibson can give them a better outing than rookie pitcher Dane Dunning.
Gibson has a record of 2-0, an ERA of 2.53, and 18 strikeouts in 21.1 IP. The 33-year-old has pitched well against the White Sox over his career. In 17 starts, Gibson is 9-5 with an ERA of 2.98.

Player Prop: Dallas Keuchel over 4.5 strikeouts (+110)
Even though we are picking the Rangers to pull off the upset Saturday night, Dallas Keuchel could begin to figure out some things on the mound. This season, the veteran pitcher has yet to record more than five strikeouts in a game. However, he’s facing a Rangers’ offense that leads the majors in strikeouts (218) and that had 14 strikeouts on Friday night.
