The Tampa Bay Rays raced out to a 14-0 start and held the division lead for a long time. They have slipped and they now trail Baltimore by 2.5 games in the AL East. They lost their top starter for the season, and the pitching staff has been weakened by his absence as the Rays allow just shy of five runs per game over their last 17 games. The young Marlins remain in contention for a wild card in the NL, trailing Arizona by 2.5 games for the final spot. The Marlins' road struggles have been with them all season where they are just 28-36. They are a stronger home team at 38-29, and Miami is 29-17 as a home favorite. The Rays are just 5-12 as a road dog this season. Make the play on Miami.
