Chicago White Sox vs Toronto Blue Jays Prediction
Those who have followed along all year know where I’m going with this. I’ve been on the White Sox early and have blindly backed them for months now. The White Sox are the most profitable team in baseball, and they keep getting disrespected by oddsmakers. Martin has held his own with a 3.41 ERA and 1.29 WHIP through 100.1 innings. Biber is still working his way back into the mix with just 17.2 innings. He has 10 walks with 13 strikeouts. I’m not stepping in front of the White Sox, a team that keeps winning and getting these soft lines. The White Sox are good folks. Give me the White Sox.
