Cleveland at Tampa Bay

Cleveland’s pitching on the road has not been pretty. The Tribe’s rotation has lit the summer barbeque by allowing 63 runs in their last nine road encounters or seven per game. That might make life difficult against a top of the rotation pitcher such as Scott Kazmir. Yes, Kazmir has struggled, but on any given day the expectation is a well-pitched six or seven innings. That can't be said about Anthony Reyes of Cleveland, who is wearing a 7.20 ERA for the season and 5.15 for his career. He has yet to go longer than six innings on the season, making the news worse for Cleveland as their bullpen has been even worse. The Tribe’s pen is pitching to a 5.75 ERA, and has allowed more runs than any American League pen. I'm riding with the Rays at home in this one.
