White Sox vs Rays Prediction
The White Sox didn’t name a starting pitcher at the time of this posting, but who cares. The White Sox have been cashing tickets over these last couple of weeks, and it’s not like the Rays are lighting the world on fire. Jax has been hittable this season with a 4.81 ERA and 1.38 WHIP, and he’s allowed 4 hits and 1 run in his last 2 innings. These are two teams with nothing to play for, but the White Sox have been a surprise cash cow as of late. There are better options out there, but I’ll take a shot with the White Sox again if forced to pick.
