Texas Rangers vs Chicago White Sox Prediction
Max Scherzer still has some work to do to return to the Max Scherzer we’re used to seeing, but there are no excuses for the Rangers in this spot. The Chicago White Sox can’t string together offense, they’re the worst team in baseball and easily the worst team for MLB bettors. No team has lost bettors more month than the White Sox. I want nothing to do with them. Give me the Rangers and the RL for max betting value.
