Chicago White Sox vs Toronto Blue Jays Prediction
Toronto has not had much success this season, but three of their last five wins have been against the White Sox in dominating fashion. The Blue Jays don’t have very good offensive numbers this season, but they are starting to pick up the pace over the last few games. Chicago is one of the worst teams in the MLB and they have lost 10 of their last 11 games by at least two runs. Toronto is starting Kevin Gausman, who has been very solid in recent outings, and he should have another great outing here. My Chicago White Sox vs Toronto Blue Jays prediction is for the Blue Jays to win by at least two runs.
