Chris Archer and Rays as a fave over the White Sox today?

[Chi_Archie]

what's the move here?

Sox +115 seems mighty fishy

 

[Chi_Archie]

over also seems very obvious


think i'll go with a shitty sunday lineup assumption UNDER

 

[FairWarning]

Played KC as a small dog, Cubs are that bad. Kind of like Sox F5 vs archer.

Archer off 10 or more days rest, excluding early April first starts of the season:

66, 62, 50, 38, 24, 20

The 66 was in his first career start 9 years ago. Take that out and you have 1 good start, 1 average, and 3 poor. The 62 was coming off the All Star break in 2015 so the extended rest wasn't due to an injury. White Sox F5 looking good, even with Reynado Lopez.

How about that trade? Rays get Glasnow and Meadows for Archer. And now they have Archer back.

I think the Rays also got their current top prospect in that deal too

I like Lopez' performance, with a strong team.

And Archer's first outing in months?

I'm playing White Sox as my BBotd

[Chi_Archie]

Archer is dealing

The Rays seemingly win every trade they make, Blake Snell being the latest example, they might be the best run organization in all of baseball, every year they're competitive with a payroll that would suggest otherwise

 

[Valuist]

Archer lasted a whole 2 innings, before leaving with left hip tightness.

 

[John Kelly]

No Nelson Cruz for the Rays.

No Tim Anderson for the White Sox.

 

[FairWarning]

No Nelson Cruz for the Rays.

No Tim Anderson for the White Sox.

Cruz was placed on the COVID list today.

agree they put the best team out there with the money they spend per dollar. They can't win it cause hitting cost money. billy beane says defense and relief are cheaper to get than hitting and starters

Yep, and he starts tomorrow in his debut against a pretty good lineup.

amazing that The Rays team batting average ranks only 17th in MLB yet they are currently tied with the Houston Astro's for scoring the most runs in MLB this year .

Tampa leads all teams in come from behind wins….44

Game today looks like an under to me. Robby Ray, as good as any starter in the AL, goes for Toronto and the Jays get to face this top prospect who they've never seen. Toss in the Tampa bullpen and have to go under 8 1/2.
