The Tampa Bay Rays, still searching for their first win, roll into American Family Field in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, to face the undefeated Brewers at 7:40 PM on MLB.TV. With the Rays' pitching staff sporting a whopping 6.75 ERA, they'll need to figure out how to cool down the Brewers' bats, which are scorching hot with a .348 average and 2 home runs. Nick Martinez (RHP, #28) gets the nod for the Rays, and he'll have his work cut out for him against Kyle Harrison (LHP, #52) and the Brewers' potent lineup. The injury bug has already bitten the Rays, with John Rooney and Logan Driscoll listed as Day-To-Day - not exactly the news you want to hear when you're trying to kickstart a sluggish start.
The contrast in team ERAs is stark, with the Rays giving up nearly five more runs per nine innings than the Brewers, who are cruising with a 1.50 ERA. The Rays' .304 batting average is respectable, but it's no match for the Brewers' torrid pace. As the Rays try to get back on track, they'll need to find a way to navigate the Brewers' stingy pitching and capitalize on any mistakes. With the Brewers looking like the team to beat, can the Rays pull off the upset, or will Milwaukee keep rolling - make your pick or follow the discussion on StreakChat.
