Angels vs White Sox Prediction
Two rookie pitchers are on the bump with a combined 38 innings and 25 walks, so who knows what to expect from a pitching perspective? I’m still siding with the White Sox and the pick ’em price, as they’ve been the better team up to this point and the Angels never string wins together. Schultz is fresh off six shutout innings against the Padres, which is greatly encouraging. Give me the White Sox and the cheap price.
