Kansas City Royals vs Chicago White Sox Prediction

Even with the White Sox finding a win here and there lately, I still have no use for them, something I’ve said time and time again over the years. Martin has been a bright spot with his 3.67 ERA and 1.24 WHIP, but the White Sox have still lost 10 of his 12 starts because they’re liquid garbage. I’m not in the business of backing the White Sox. Lugo has a 3.45 ERA and 1.15 WHIP, and he’s holding current White Sox hitters to a .206 batting average and 15 strikeouts in 63 at-bats. I want nothing to do with the White Sox. I’ll say it until the cows come home. Give me the Royals.
