Rangers and Athletics Pitchers Face Mysterious Slumps—Will They Find the Secret to Success?

The Athletics are probably in the same category as the Rangers. Personally, I think the team is trying to do their best to build a contender for when they eventually have their new home in Las Vegas. Right now, the minor league feel of their home stadium is a bad look for baseball. However, the team is at least looking more competitive than they have in their past few seasons in Oakland. They will likely need help along the way, but they have a solid farm system and a good, young core. They will need pitching if they want to make it all work. Today, they send out Luis Severino. This is his first start of the year at home, but through three outings on the road, he has allowed eight earned runs in 13.1 innings. Last season his ERA was three runs higher at home than on the road. To be clear, he hasn’t had terrible starts, he just isn’t going all that deep into games. Rangers hitters are batting .320 against him, so it could be a long day.
