This is a meeting in which two capable pitchers match up terrifically against their opponent.
The Rangers rank 28th in slugging against Athletics' starter James Kaprielian's favorite pitches from righties.
In a similar vein, Oakland ranks 29th in slugging against Rangers' starter Glenn Otto's favorite pitches from righties.
While Otto allowed a lot of runs in his last start against Texas, his strong FIP (like ERA but factors out fielding) in that outing and the fact that he did a great job of inducing soft contact in that start indicate that one should rely on him to thrive against this opponent.
