Chicago White Sox vs New York Mets Prediction
Another White Sox game, another chance to fade them and make a profit. I want nothing to do with the White Sox, the worst team in baseball over the last three years. This season alone, the White Sox have lost the third-most money for MLB bettors. Only the Orioles and Rockies have lost bettors more money. The Mets are having a great week, and Canning has been sharp this season with his 2.88 ERA and 1.32 WHIP. In 23.2 home innings, Canning has a 2.66 ERA and a .195 allowed batting average. Give me the Mets and the RL for max betting value.
