Taking the RAYS here. We didn't play these guys yesterday after cashing with them Friday night but will gladly back Matt Moore here even at this price. If some guy in Detroit was mowing down batters like he is, then this youngster would be in Cy Young talk. Moore is 14-3 3.17 ERA on the year. Hitters batting just .204 against and he is striking out almost a hitter an inning. As nice as his season has been, he has pitched better on the road than at home. Moore 7-1 2.77 ERA in 10 starts with a .187 BA against. Rays 10-1 in Moore's last 11 road starts, 14-3 last 17 when he's listed as a fave, 12-3 last 15 vs teams with winning records and 18-4 his last 22 overall. As a team, Tampa 21-5 last 26 when listed as road faves and 7-1 last 8 on the road. Clearly NYY is struggling. Even adding Soriano and maybe with Jeter back this team has huge offensive holes. Holes the size of the grand canyon! Enter Phil Hughes. The kid has been BRUTAL at home this year. 1-7 5.63 ERA in 10 starts. Hitters batting .292 against him. Yanks 3-9 last 12 when Hughes starts and 0-6 his last 6 home starts. Can't see that changing today. 5* Best Bet TB RAYS
