San Diego Padres vs Chicago White Sox Prediction

The San Diego Padres continue to rack up wins as they close in on a playoff spot, and they’ve been a team I’ve backed a lot in the second half. The Chicago White Sox are a team we’ve faced all year, and it shouldn’t stop now. As I’ve said endless times this year, the Chicago White Sox are one of the worst teams in baseball history. A $100 bettor is down nearly $6,000 this season backing the White Sox. No, thanks. Give me the Padres and the RL for max betting value.
