Boston has scored at least six runs in four of their last five games, and they are going against Littell, who has allowed two earned runs or fewer in three of his last four starts. The Rays have been super inconsistent at the plate over their last five games, and they are facing Buehler, who has allowed 10 earned runs and 17 hits in his last 7.2 innings. I can’t back Buehler with how he has looked recently, so give me the Rays here.
