Due to my daughter missing her bus this morning I’m gonna have to keep this preview short and sweet.
The Astros arrive in Tampa to face a team that should be much more motivated than their recent opponents. The Rays are currently jockeying for position in the AL Wild Card with an outside shot at capturing the division from the suddenly-anemic Yankees. They aren’t getting any help from within their division either as Tampa is both trying to catch up with Toronto for the top WC spot and fend off the Orioles, who remain within striking distance of the third spot.
