They won but it certainly was not due to them "rocking" anyone. Sure they beat a mediocre Toronto team that had runners all over the place with no outs and couldn't score but that's only because Toronto's offense is almost as bad as TB's. Just more value to go against Tampa Bay billhill. Betting against them on the road has been gold lately. Now time to start betting against them at home some.
BoL.
Dodgers in the 60's won 3 pennants with pitching and a worse offense than TB's.
TB is using the same formula as those Dodgers, speed, pitching, and a boatload on one run wins.
TB at 23-28 on the road is not that bad, it's not good, but there are 12 teams that are bigger money burners wagering wise on the road, than the Rays.
Personally, I think it's going to be Sox, NYY again come September, but I'd be careful with the Rays, pitching wins, and speed never slumps.
