Cleveland Guardians vs Chicago White Sox Prediction
The Guardians have their issues and Allen has been hittable this season, but you guys know the drill by now. We don’t back the White Sox. The worst team in baseball over the last three years, we’ve made a killing blindly fading the White Sox time and time again. Cannon isn’t great with his 4.50 ERA, 1.46 WHIP, and .274 allowed batting average. I have no interest in getting involved with the White Sox. Give me the Guardians on Thursday night.
