Probables

Niemann VS Lester

Price VS DiceK

Garza VS Buchholz



Big series, important to both possibly dire to the Red Sox. Sawx just came off a sweep at the hands of the White Sox and the Rays lost the weekend series to the Orioles, the only team with a worse record is the Pirates.

The Rays/Red Sox record this season is 10-5.
