Today, Spencer Turnbull takes the mound for the Tigers while Zac Eflin will start the game for the Rays. Our experts have factored this into their Tigers vs. Rays predictions and give the pitching advantage to the Rays on paper, assuming both pitchers are in similar form to their 2022 campaign.

In addition to the advantage in the pitching department, the Rays will also have a decent advantage with their lineup as far as depth and general production go. No team in the majors has done a better job of doing more with less than the Rays who have managed to compete consistently despite being in a smaller market.

At the end of the day, our expert Tigers vs. Rays predictions are that the Rays will be able to score a decent number of runs and beat the Tigers by more than 1.5 runs to cover the +120-priced run line.

While our experts may have included the Rays run line at -1.5 in their Tigers vs. Rays predictions, that’s far from all. The Rays -1.5 is our official best bet as far as our expert Tigers vs. Rays predictions go, but we also have some player props we’re high on.

Wunderkid Wander Franco is -170 to record a run. Combine that with the fact that he will be a central piece of the Rays’ offense this season and we like them to cover the run line, and this seems like a good price on a fairly likely outcome.
