MLB: Friday's Bos/TB

Play: Boston -108 (Lackey vs. action)

Time: 7:10 p.m. ET

Reasoning: The Rays are just 2-9 in their last 11 home games. They will send Chris Archer out there tonight and he's been a gas can (1.45 WHIP, 4.59 ERA overall, 1.72 WHIP in last three). Archer hasn't gone past the sixth inning in eight of his nine starts this season and he is 1-2 with a 6.38 ERA lifetime against the Red Sox. As such I expect David Ortiz, who hasn't recorded an RBI in his last seven games, to break out. Boston will send out veteran John Lackey, who is 13-7 in his career vs. Tampa Bay. The Red Sox definitely have the bullpen advantage here with a 2.94 ERA vs. the 4.11 ERA of the Rays.

Record: 87-52-5 (62.6%)
Bankroll: +132.79%
