Ricky's 1* play on TB.

Key Angle: It's important to remember that Ricky never makes a bet on any game based on just one angle. In order to make the grade, all his premium picks must meet several important criteria. He doesn't share all his secrets within his analysis, instead he chooses to reveal only the angle that he feels is the most significant. Here in this game the recent history of these two teams is particularly significant.

- Tampa Bay is 5-0 in its last 5 games.

- NY Yankees is 4-10 in its last 14 games.

- Tampa Bay is 4-1 in its last 5 games on the road.

Verdict: The value is on the home Underdog.

The Tampa Bay Rays are the hottest team in baseball right now.  They have gone 21-4 in their last 25 games overall.  They have the rest advantage over the Yankees after having yesterday off while New York played Toronto on Thursday.  I would argue they have the starting pitching advantage as well, so they should not be this big of underdogs to the Yankees tonight.  Nick Martinez is 4-1 with a 1.51 ERA and 1.04 WHIP in nine starts for the Rays this season.  He has given up only 9 earned runs in 53 2/3 innings.  Gerrit Cole will be making his first start of the season for the Yankees and won't be his same dominant self in his first start back.  The Yankees have a poor, taxed bullpen after their four-game series witht he Blue Jays.  They have actually played five straight games decided by 2 runs or fewer, including four one-run games.  They have a banged up lineup as well that has scored a total of one run in their last two games combined.  Give me the Rays.
