White Sox vs Angels Prediction
The White Sox are 4-1 in their last 5 meetings against the Angels and are 3-2 in their last 5 visits in Los Angeles.
In this White Sox vs Angels Prediction, the White Sox are coming as -115 road favorites. Both teams have split wins in this series but the White Sox have the advantage on the mound with Noah Schultz, who has been excellent and has just three earned runs across his last three starts. Urena is coming off a quality start for the Angels, but they rank 29th in bullpen ERA, so even if he gets a good start, things will not look very good after that. I like the White Sox in a bounce back spot in a very good price, so take them on the moneyline on the road in this one.
