Orioles vs White Sox Prediction

The Orioles are 9-1 in their last 10 meetings against the White Sox, having won their last four visits in Chicago.

In this Orioles vs White Sox Prediction, the Orioles are coming as -133 road favorites. Orioles won yesterday to snap their three-game losing streak and have the pitching advantage today, as Trevor Rogers goes up against Shane Smith. Rogers looks sharp in his two starts, while Smith was torched in his previous start and has now 10 earned runs in just 4.2 innings pitched this season. White Sox are 23rd in bullpen ERA this season, so I expect the Orioles to get the job done on the road in a very reasonable price.
