Tampa Bay Rays vs. Los Angeles Dodgers
Sunday, August 25, 2024 – 04:10 PM ET at Dodger Stadium
A Potential Bullpen Game
The Rays will give the ball to Drew Rasmussen for the start of today’s game. However, Rasmussen has just returned to the mound after injury and has only thrown 26 pitches per start this season.
It’s unlikely Rasmussen goes super deep in this game, leaving the Rays with a bullpen game against a powerful Dodgers lineup.
The Dodgers have hit a .239 ISO and wOBA of .359 against righties over the last 30 days, led by Shohei Ohtani. Max Muncy is also back in the lineup, which has helped against righties.
The Rays Can’t Find Much Offense
Conversely, the Rays have hit a .128 ISO and wOBA of .286 against righties over the last 30 days.
That won’t get the job done against Gavin Stone, who has struck out 23% of batters and has walked just 5.3% over the last month.
MLB Computer Pick
Let’s ride with the Dodgers at -195. It’s a hefty price, but one that still makes sense per our AI Model.
