📚Player Profit 🔑 Rays ML +138 (Player Profit) 3u Have to start out hot today and I’m backing the Rays here. Baz ca look like the best pitcher in baseball but also the worst some times but he has ripped off 3 straight good starts. Close to 90% of the public is on the Cubs but the sharp money on the Rays. No Tucker for the Cubs, their bats are cold. I like the Rays here Code: sirlocks for 10% off every deposit at https://www.playerprofit.com/
