Chicago White Sox vs Philadelphia Phillies Prediction
The Phillies are going to get the love because they’re the Phillies and they’re at home, but we’ve been backing the White Sox and profiting a lot this season. the Whtie Sox keep winning games, and oddmakers don’t price them fairly. Luzardo has also been a wreck through 32 home innings with a 7.31 ERA and a .286 batting average allowed. Kay is coming off a May where he allowed 28 hits and 7 earned runs in 32.1 innings. The White Sox have won 8 of Kay’s last 11 starts. I’ll gladly grab the plus money with the White Sox.
