PHILLIES VS RAYS PREDICTION

The Phillies are banged up with Harper, Gregorius, and Quinn out and will be missing this game. Realmuto returned yesterday but you can’t expect too much from him after missing 2 weeks. The Rays are playing their best baseball of the season with the best record in the American League. The Rays are starting McHugh who has pitched well but they are planning on a bullpen day. The Rays’ bullpen has a 3.61 ERA and is one of the best in the MLB. Anytime you can get the Rays with little juice playing a banged-up team at Tropicana Field it’s tough to pass on. Take the value with the Rays today.
