The Rays are averaging 4.46 runs per game while their pitching is giving up 4.15 runs per game. The offense is ranked 15th, while the pitching is ranked 10th. Junior Caminero is having a huge season and has hit 44 home runs and driven in 108 RBIs. Ryan Pepiot gets the start for the Rays and he sits with an 11-11 record and an ERA of 3.37. In his last start he went 1.2 innings giving up four hits and four runs. In his previous three starts though, he had gone 15 innings total and didn’t give up a run.
The Orioles are averaging 4.21 runs while their pitching is giving up 4.87 runs per game. The offense is ranked 24th in baseball, while the pitching is ranked 24th. One issue for this team all season has been injuries and catcher Adley Rutschman is dealing with an abdominal injury.
Give me the Rays to get the job done here. Tampa Bay’s offense was good on Sunday, but it’s going to be the pitching that ends up being the difference in this game. Pepiot wasn’t great in his last start, but let’s not forget what he was able to do in the three starts before that. The Orioles offense has been bad most of the season, and this is going to be a game where they are going to really struggle again here. The Orioles won’t score more than two runs here, and that won’t be enough. Back Tampa Bay on the money line to cash here.
