    Tampa bay holds off Elimination today

    Here is some stuff I found on this game and went with Tampa bay today
    expect the Tampa Bay Rays to avoid the sweep tonight and take Game 3 of this ALDS series with the Houston Astros at home. Their ace Charlie Morton got them through the wild card game with a brilliant start against Oakland, and he’ll come through in the clutch for them once again here.

    Morton is 17-6 with a 2.97 ERA and 1.097 WHIP in 34 starts this season. He is 8-3 with a 2.59 ERA and 0.958 WHIP in 17 home starts. Morton has never lost in the postseason, going 4-0 with a 2.00 ERA and 1.185 WHIP in five playoff starts.

    Zack Greinke is having a solid season between the Astros and Diamondbacks as well. He is 18-5 with a 3.06 ERA and 0.987 WHIP in 33 starts. However, one of his worst starts of the year came against the Rays on August 29th. He allowed 5 runs in 5 2/3 innings, and the Rays will have confidence at the plate tonight because of it.

    Greinke is 4-18 (-14.9 units) in his career in road games against AL East opponents. The Rays are 9-1 in their last 10 home games vs. a team with a winning record. Tampa Bay is 6-0 in its last six games after losing the first two games of a series. The Rays are 7-0 in Morton’s last seven home starts vs. a team with a winning record. Tampa Bay is 6-0 in Morton’s last six starts overall.

    only reason Morton didn't get shelled last outing was because Oakland is a bunch of choke artists. they had him on the ropes in multiple spots of that game.

    Agree Harry. Greinke has been very hittable - Rays, Angels, Brewers all put up 4+ on him in the last month or so. Morton at home is nails. The desperate Rays live to see another day!

    He still doesn't have the makeup to pitch in big games especially on a hostile environment.
