If the playoffs started today the Tampa Bay Rays would be in them, but there is a lot of work to be done. The Rays went through a bad stretch, but have gotten back to a high level of play with 3 straight wins. The Rays pitching is key as they have allowed 8 total runs in the 3 contests. This evening they have their top option on the mound in Shane McClanahan. McClanahan has started twice vs. the Tigers and posted a strong 1.50 ERA. The Tigers are out of the playoffs and are just 4-10 in their last 14 games, as they look to the future giving players a chance at the major league level. They are overmatched in this one. Make the play on Tampa Bay.
