There will be a pitching mismatch tonight when the Tampa Bay Rays play host to the Oakland Athletics. Charlie Morton will be tapping the rubber for the Rays and he has been nothing but stellar. Morton is a perfect 7-0, with a 2.30 ERA, a 1.06 WHIP, and over his last 3 turns, his ERA has dropped to 1.35 with a 0.70 WHIP. Tanner Anderson is expected to get the nod for the A’s and he will be making his first Major League start. Anderson’s numbers were not good for AAA Las Vegas. He was 4-4 with a 6.26 ERA in 10 starts. Tampa has won 8 of the last 11 meetings with Oakland and 5 of the last 7 against them at home.
TONIGHT’S PICK: TAMPA BAY RAYS
