Tampa Bay at Boston

Premium Pick

A lot more was expected from both of these teams, who have each gotten off to horrible starts. Tampa Bay may have the excuse as their starting rotation has been crippled with injuries. Boston just doesn't look the same this season, and are not hitting at all. Boston is used to dominating opponents at home, but at 5-8 at Fenway on the season, the Red Sox are just not getting it done. Boston will complete April with no more than a two game winning streak for the entire month. Lackey will have to provide more than the career 4.39 ERA he owns against Tampa Bay to get things turned around, but the value is squarely on the Rays. Make the play on Tampa Bay.

1.5 units on Tampa Bay +157 (moneyline) (risk 1.5 to return 3.86)
