Premium Pick

Tampa Bay has won Zach Eflin's past five starts and he has allowed only 19 runs his past 10 appearances, with 56 1/3 innings pitched. Destined to finish last in the AL East, Boston has lost 11 of 14 home games and the Rays have won 19 of 26 meetings. Tampa still has its eye on the division title, too, trailing the O's by 2.5 games. Tanner Houck is 5-9 with a 4.92 ERA overall and a 5.08 ERA in home games, and he faced Tampa Bay once this season and yielded four runs on five hits in five innings. The Red Sox are 7-15 in September and they have one of the worst bullpens in the majors with a 4.35 ERA and 1.41 WHIP. The Rays' relievers lead the MLB with a 1.18 WHIP and they are tied for #6 with a 3.64 ERA. Boston is 7-1 UNDER its past nine games while scoring only 2.56 runs per game and the Red Sox are 8-1 UNDER following a loss. Boston scored just five runs in a three-game series versus the lowly White Sox. Take the Rays and the UNDER.
