Chicago White Sox vs Minnesota Twins Prediction


I’m not excited about a pitching matchup of Fedde and Ober, and I guess the Twins are getting the edge because they’re at home. Then again, the White Sox have been disrespected by oddsmakers all season. Of course we’ve backed the White Sox all year blindly for the most part, and they’ve been the most profitable team for MLB bettors. No team has earned more money this season than the White Sox. Knowing that, I’m going to keep backing the White Sox, the team that’s been extremely kind.
