The Chicago White Sox and Minnesota Twins meet Wednesday in MLB action at Target Field. The Chicago White Sox look to snap a 7-game losing streak. The Minnesota Twins need a win after losing 9 of their last 12 games.
The Chicago White Sox have scored 3 runs in their last 3 games and 3 or fewer runs in 6 straight games. The White Sox have lost 10 straight games when scoring 3 or fewer runs. Jose Abreu leads the White Sox with 176 hits and 73 RBI, while Andrew Vaughn and AJ Pollock have combined for 252 hits and 129 RBI. Johnny Cueto gets the ball, and he is 7-9 with a 3.15 ERA and 91 strikeouts this season. Cueto is 4-0 with a 1.41 ERA and 29 strikeouts in his career against the Twins.
The Minnesota Twins have scored 15 runs in their last 3 games and 4 or more runs in 5 of their last 10 games. The Twins have split their last 10 games when scoring 4 or more runs. Luis Arraez leads the Twins with 165 hits and 48 RBI, while Carlos Correa and Gio Urshela have combined for 274 hits and 121 RBI. Josh Winder gets the ball, and he is 4-5 with a 4.20 ERA and 39 strikeouts this season. Winder is 1-0 with a 3.00 ERA and 5 strikeouts in his career against the White Sox.
The White Sox are 7-2 in their last 9 road games and 12-5 in their last 17 during game 2 of a series. The Twins are 2-5 in their last 7 during game 2 of a series and 1-6 in their last 7 overall. The over is 5-2 in White Sox last 7 overall. The White Sox are 6-2 in the last 8 meetings.
The Chicago White Sox look like a team that’s given up and is counting the days until vacation. The White Sox have lost 7 straight games and the offense is putting up zeros on a nightly basis. I don’t care about the pitching matchup. Yes, the Minnesota Twins have issues of their own, but they’ve shown signs of life here and there, and being at home helps. Backing the White Sox in their current form isn’t an option for me.
