Tampa Bay at New York

Both the New York Yankees and Tampa Bay Rays have played poorly for a length of time. The Rays took the opener on the road at the Stadium, 4-2, improving their road record to 4-13 in their past 17. New York has Max Fried on the hill, and he is a bona fide slump buster, often pitching deep into games; however, Fried has allowed 14 earned runs over his last four starts, logging just 19 innings of work for a woeful 6.63 ERA. The Yankees are 6-3 OVER in their past nine, and I like this one to sail over the number. Make the Rays/Yankees OVER.
