Tampa Bay Rays vs. Los Angeles Dodgers Prediction
I’m on the Dodgers here. Rasmussen has been really inconsistent and a lot more frustrating to back than we’ve seen him be in past seasons. Wrobleski has been hit or miss as well, but I think he can have a solid start against a Rays team that has issues against lefties. Give me the Dodgers.
