Boston at Tampa Bay

The Tampa Bay Rays have seen their hold on the final wild card slot dwindle to just a single game. Last night it was a grand slam in the 10th inning that led to their demise. Jeremy Hellickson will get the call to try and stop the bleeding, and he looks to be a good choice. Hellickson is off a great start vs. LA in his last outing, allowing no runs in 5.1 innings of work. He has also held this Boston lineup in check in his two starts this season against them, allowing just 2 runs in 7 innings, and 2 runs in 6 innings. Hellickson is also 7-1 in his last eight home starts vs. a team with a winning record. The Rays have been struggling, but not at home when facing a right hander where they are 15-5 in their last 20. Go with Tampa Bay.
