San Diego Padres vs. Texas Rangers: Sunday, June 21st

It's a interleague matchup this Sunday afternoon as the Padres and Rangers face off one more time in this series. Today, it's Lucas Giolito against Nathan Eovaldi on the mound and the batters could be in for a treat! 

Giolito has been serviceable since starting his season in mid-May, but one thing he has struggled with is lefty bats. In 49 at bats this season against that side of the plate, he's allowed an average of .347 and an OPS of .953. He has also walked 12 batters as well, so Giolito just can't get outs against these hitters. That's where Brandon Nimmo comes into play today, as he is batting fourth in the Texas lineup and he's played very well of late. Over the past week, Nimmo is hitting .333 with 14 total bases and three RBIs and during the course of the season and he has six homers against right-handed pitching. He should go over his hits/runs/RBIs prop today, so that will be my leading wager for today in what could be a higher scoring game than expected by the sportsbooks.
