White Sox vs Tigers Prediction

The Tigers have had issues stringing wins together, and that’s why they’re in the position they’re in currently. The White Sox need wins if they’re going to lock up a playoff spot, and they’re a team we’ve backed all season long. I don’t trust Jobe’s sample size of 34.2 innings. Burke has been solid with a 3.47 ERA and 1.20 WHIP through 161 frames. The price is cheap as oddsmakers continue to disrespect the White Sox. I’ll keep backing a team that cashes tickets.
