Chicago White Sox vs. Texas Rangers Prediction
I’m on the White Sox in this one. I get the case to be made for Texas with deGrom at home, but the Rangers are still overpriced for me in this one because of it and the White Sox are still a solid team against right-handed pitching. I think that Chicago takes care of business to start the series so give me the White Sox.
