White Sox vs Blue Jays Prediction

I’m on the Blue Jays in this one. Houser’s been the best option for the White Sox this season, and I can understand the respect that comes from that from an odds’ perspective. That being said, the Blue Jays are on fire right now, and I think that until I have a reason to deviate from them, I’m going to keep backing Toronto here. Give me the Blue Jays in this one.
