Chicago White Sox vs. Baltimore Orioles Prediction

I’m backing Chicago here. This is simply a case of two teams headed in different directions and until I see the Orioles wake up and snap out of this funk, it’s truly hard to make a case for them in any way, shape or form. Schultz is making his return to the major leagues here after an injury, but I still think he has more than enough going here to be able to take care of business and add to Baltimore’s misery here. Give me the White Sox.
