Chicago White Sox vs. Texas Rangers Prediction
I’m leaning towards the over here. Backing the over with the White Sox involved is always a risky proposition because, well, it’s the White Sox. However, Kumar Rocker stinks out loud, and if there’s a pitcher the White Sox could break through against, it’s him. On the other side, Aaron Civale got what he wished for when he asked for a trade, I just think the White Sox came out on the wrong end of the deal as Civale is not a good option, but he’s better than some of what they had already so maybe it’s a glass half full approach? Either way, I think we’re getting some runs here, so give me the over.
