Premium Pick

Tampa Bay is on a 9-2 run and has its ace going. Starter Blake Snell (16-5, 2.05 ERA) has 168 Ks in 145 innings as batters are hitting .179 off him for the season. Snell is off a gem against a tough Red Sox lineup in a 9-1 win. Since returning from the disabled list, he's gone 4-0 while allowing three runs with 34 strikeouts in 26 innings. The Rays are 10-1 when Snell works with five days of rest. Tampa Bay is also 19-8 against winning teams, plus 13-4 versus a right-handed starter. Cleveland righty Shane Bieber is no ace. In his last three starts he's thrown 16 innings, allowing 18 hits and 10 runs. At home batters are hitting .301 off him. The Indians have lost four in a row against southpaws -- make that five in a row today. Play Tampa Bay.
