Texas Rangers vs Chicago White Sox Prediction 

Texas has played pretty inconsistently for most of this season, but they have finally started to improve and they are just three games back in the AL West. The Rangers are 27-23 at home, while the White Sox are 10-42 on the road. Chicago has been one of the worst teams in the MLB this season and they are dead last in runs scored. The White Sox are starting Flexen, who has actually been somewhat solid for Chicago, but their bullpen has been bad. The Rangers are going with Eovaldi, who has been very good so far this season. Texas has everything to play for and they know they can’t drop any games to this White Sox team. My Texas Rangers vs Chicago White Sox prediction is for the Rangers to win by at least two runs.
