The Tampa Bay Rays are 4-1 on the season following a 7-1 victory over the Colorado Rockies Monday night. I like the price we get on the Rockies to bounce back here in Game 2 of the series with left-hander Kyle Freeland (1-0, 1.29 ERA) on the mound.

Freeland will make his first career start against the Rays, but he's an undefeated 6-0 with a 1.78 ERA in eight career interleague starts. In his first start of the season, Freeland allowed just a pair of hits as he cruised through seven innings of one-run ball at Miami.

The Rays turn to left-hander Blake Snell (0-1, 7.50 ERA) who served up three homers through six innings of a 5-1 loss to Houston on Opening Day. While the reigning American League Cy Young no doubt is better than that, I would not be surprised to see the Rockies get to him as well.

8* play on Colorado Rockies.
