    Tuesday Tampa at Chicago pitching mismatch play

    On Tuesday the mismatch play is on the Tampabay Rays.Game 975 at 8:10 eastern.Tampa has a big pitching edge in this game.They have righty J.Niemann going tonight and he is one of the most underated pitchers in the bigs this year.Lets delve into the numbers and give him some of the credit he deserves.Tampa has cashed in 12 of Niemanns 16 starts this year including a solid 8-2 on the road.His road era is also solid at 3.78 when considering he pitches in the best division in baseball.In his last 3 starts he has been more than stellar with a 1.33 era.Tonight he takes on a Whitesox team that is hitting only .240 at home this year and whom he pitched well against in his last start.Chicago has lefty Clayton Richard starting in this one and his numbers will scare off no one.His home era this year is 7.95 and he has been shelled in his last three outings with an 11.81 era.Tampa has a nice bull pen edge having an era thats over 1 run better on the road than Chicagos at home.Look for the Rays to even the series tonight and avenge last nights close loss.Take Tampa as the mismatch play on Tuesday bol.GC
