The Boston Red Sox we're the team I picked to win it all last season and that futures payout was very nice but this season although the roster is pretty much the same the result is far different. Boston comes into this game 7-13 and at the bottom of the American League East.
Players are starting to feel the pressure just remember how big this Boston Red Sox payroll is for 2019. Their payroll hovers around 230 million dollars and the big problem with the Red Sox this year as far as I can see it is their pitchers just do not have it.

The big name guys like Chris Sale have lost 5-10 MPH on his fast ball and that throws off all of his pitchers and then you toss in tonight's high priced starter in Rick Porcello who is 0-3 with a 11.2 ERA and this guys has been getting blasted.
Rays send out for this game former Astros pitcher Charlie Morton and so far he has paid off for the thrifty Rays going 2-0 with a 2.18 ERA. Charlie has 25 strike outs and just 10 walks compare that to Porcello who has 12 walks and 10 strike outs.

Free Betting Pick: Rays -145
Rays come in this game hungry to get back on the winning side of things after losing their game on Friday to the Red Sox. Boston's bullpen has also been a big issue this season. Look for the Rays to get to Boston's bullpen early and for this game to get out of hand as Tampa wins easy 8-2.
