Minnesota Twins vs. Chicago White Sox Prediction
I’m on the White Sox here. I’ve been impressed with Sandlin’s stuff at the minor league level, and I think he can have a solid major league debut here. I haven’t been impressed with Prielipp’s game to this point and I think the White Sox back up Sandlin here for the win.
