WILL ROGERS (10* MLB) BIG BAD SLUGFEST (OFF 4-1 MONDAY!)
(MLB) Colorado vs. Tampa Bay,
Total: 7.00 | -112.00 Under
Result: Loss
The set-up: Two competent starters square off here, but I'm expecting a much more competitive game today after the Rays' 7-1 victory on Monday. That was Tampa's fourth straight win.

The pitchers: The home side turns to Blake Snell (0-1, 7.50 ERA), who was rocked for six hits, including three homers over six innings in a 5-1 loss to the Astros in his 2019 opener.

Colorado counters with Kyle Freeland (1-0, 1.29), who looked good in his first start after putting together a very solid 2018 as well.

The pick: Take it for what you will as well though, but Colorado has seen the total go over the number in four of its last five on the road, while Tampa's seen the total go over in seven of its last nine home games after holding its previous opponent to one or less runs in a victory. This number is low, play the "over."
