White Sox vs Tigers Prediction
As I’ve said before countless times, the White Sox are a team I’ve faded over the years, and that doesn’t stop now. The White Sox have won two games since May 25 and can’t string together an offense during these losses. Even with Burke pitching well and allowing 10 earned runs in his last 33 innings, it’s hard to back the White Sox with confidence. The Tigers continue to rack up the wins, and Mize has been sharp with his 2.82 ERA and 1.14 WHIP. Only one spot to go here. Give me the Tigers and the RL for max betting value.
