Tampa Bay had a rough weekend against San Francisco, but they've still won 9 of 15. That included winning two of three as a dog against surging Houston, plus two of three as a dog at Arizona. Rays 3B Evan Longoria has belted eight homers in his last 14 games. Tampa Bay has talented lefty Drew Smyly on the hill, 2-2 with a 3.93 ERA in 14 appearances against Cleveland. For the season Smyly has an 89-19 strikeout to walk ratio in 77+ innings while allowing fewer hits than innings pitched. He comes off a 3-2 win over Seattle striking out 12 in 6+ innings with no walks, four hits. Cleveland is a .500 team the last 12 games, losing four times as chalk. Indians' starter Josh Tomlin is 2-2 with a 4.11 ERA in four career starts against the Rays, making this a great spot for the dog. Play Tampa Bay.
