Analysis
I'm on the Rays -1.5 on Monday. The Tampa Bay Rays are in a strong position to cover the run line against the Kansas City Royals on Monday night. Tampa Bay enters the matchup with a 43-31 record and has been one of baseball's best home teams, posting a dominant 26-10 mark at home this season. Meanwhile, Kansas City has struggled throughout the year and enters the series with one of the American League's worst records and a poor road mark, winning just 13 of 37. And while Michael Wacha has hit the skids of late, Drew Rasmussen continues to shine. We also have the better offensive team on our side. I'm on the Rays -1.5 runs, my AL GOM. Thanks and best of luck! JB.
