Tampa Bay Rays vs Arizona Diamondbacks Prediction

The Rays have not only lost six of their last seven games, but they’ve been held to one or fewer runs in four of their last six games. It’s hard to get behind the Rays in their current form. Bradley doesn’t provide any more confidence when he’s allowed 16 hits and 11 runs in his last 16.1 innings. Bradley has also walked 10 during that span.

The Diamondbacks have won nine of their last 12 games since starting the season 5-6, and Rodriguez is a veteran pitcher who is trustworthy most nights. Rodriguez is getting better with each start, which includes allowing three earned runs in his last 11.2 innings. The price is still reasonable. Give me the Diamondbacks on Wednesday night, as the Rays are going nowhere fast right now.
