White Sox vs Royals Betting Prediction

Chicago comes into this game as one of the worst teams in the MLB to start this season and they should be without Luis Robert, who was hurt on Friday. The White Sox offense has been miserable through their first seven games and they are batting below .200 on the season. Kansas City has started the season with a 4-4 record and their offense has been decent. Chicago is starting Chris Flexen, who was lit up by the Braves in his first start. KC is starting Michael Wacha, who did allow three earned runs over 5.0 innings against Baltimore, but only allowed three hits and one walk. I can’t trust this Chicago offense, especially without Robert, so give me the under here.
