Randy’s Pick

Freddy Peralta hasn’t been great with his 4.28 ERA, but it’s better than what Dylan Cease has to offer with his 4.42 ERA and 1.41 WHIP. The White Sox also continue to find ways to lose and are the perfect team for the Brewers to play as they continue to pad their lead in the NL Central. You can argue this price should be a little steeper given the form of both clubs. I’ll side with the Brewers and the cheap price.
