Scott "The Bulldog" Rickenbach MLB Monday Free Pick Boston Red Sox Money Line (-) vs Tampa Bay Rays @ 11:05 AM ET - With Steven Wright off of a horrific start it may seem tough to back the Red Sox here. However, especially with the big downward line move making Boston a small home favorite in this one, there is exceptional line value being offered. Wright is likely to bounce back as his awful start versus Baltimore last week was highly unusual. Also, the Rays Blake Snell has been struggling with his command early this season and has more walks than strikeouts. His struggles often make it tough to pitch deep into games and that is also a significant factor here because the Rays bullpen is 2-4 with a 4.57 ERA so far this season while the Red Sox pen is 4-1 with a 1.98 ERA so far this season. Yesterday's 7-5 BoSox win sent the Rays to their 5th loss in 6 road games and this early game Monday will wrap up the 7-game road trip. The Red Sox are a solid 6-2 at home and I'll grab the value with the stronger hitting team, better bullpen, and with a knuckle-baller likely to bounce back from a rare horrendous outing. Free Pick on BOSTON on the money line ultra early Monday. Best of luck, Scott "The Bulldog" Rickenbach
