The White Sox are 9-4 in their last 13 games following an off day and 5-0 in their last 5 road games.

The White Sox are 4-0 in the last 4 meetings in Milwaukee and 13-6 in the last 19 meetings.

Lucas Giolito has been consistent this season, allowing three or less earned runs in six of his last seven starts. You can say the same for Freddy Peralta, who has allowed 11 earned runs in his last 41.1 innings. You can make a case for either side here, but the White Sox have been more consistent and I trust Giolito a bit more on the mound. Give me the White Sox.
