Prediction

This is a play against Tampa Bay here. It’s been a rough run for them lately and they are playing themselves out of playoff contention. Tampa Bay has lost six of their last seven and are just 7-20 in their last 27 overall. Over the last 10 games, the Rays are hitting .218 as a team with an ERA of 5.34. The Rays have also lost each of Baz’s last five starts and he has a 6.33 home ERA in 11 starts. The Dodgers bounced back from a rough weekend in Boston to take two of three in Cincinnati. They should be able to generate some offense tonight against Baz.

Pick: Dodgers -1.5 +110
