We have to go with the hometown Rays in this spot. Weaver has had a tough go of it on the road this season with a 2-4 W/L record and 5.73 ERA. He is coming off of his worst start of the season allowing 7 runs to the Yankees in 5 2/3 innings. Tampa Bay starter Erasmo Ramirez has yet to record a Q start in three home starts, but has pitched well at Tropicana Field (21 2/3 IP, 1.02 WHIP and 3.32 ERA). Historical batter versus pitcher statistics favor Ramirez and we get the hot team at home at low odds.
