Twins vs White Sox Prediction
The White Sox have been able to find wins here and there over the last month, but they’re still not a team I’m excited to back. Martin also does little for me with his 4.03 ERA and 1.28 WHIP, and he’s allowed 13 earned runs in his last 24.2 innings. However, the Twins continue to lose games and Woods Richardson isn’t lighting the world on fire with his 4.59 ERA and 1.42 WHIP. The Twins shouldn’t be favored in this spot. If forced to pick a side, I need plus money attached. So, while I’m not excited with the White Sox, I have to lean toward the better price.
