It's good value to take a price on the Rays in a pitching matchup of youngsters Blake Snell versus Caleb Smith.

Snell has pitched better than his 0-6 record shows. Snell held Baltimore to one run in seven innings during his last start this past Monday. He has a 2.38 career ERA in five games against the Yankees.

The lefthanded Smith has a 8.10 ERA. This will be his second big league start. He allowed four runs on five hits and one walk in 3 2/3 innings during his debut against the Mariners at pitcher-friendly Safeco Field this past Sunday.

The Rays have won five of the last seven times they've gone against a southpaw starter.
