White Sox Picked up a Win

The White Sox on Sunday were able to pick up a win, not something they have done a whole lot this season. The White Sox faced off against the Boston Red Sox and they were able to secure the 7-2 victory. Chris Flexen had a strong start going six innings giving up six hits and two runs. The White Sox are averaging 3.06 runs, while their pitching is giving up 5.03 runs per game. The offense is ranked 30th in the league while the pitching is ranked 28th. Andrew Vaughn has hit 17 home runs and driven in 62 RBIs so far this season. 

Guardians Offense Looks to Bounce Back

The Guardians in the last game faced off against the Los Angeles Dodgers and they were defeated 4-0. Tanner Bibbee went five innings, giving up four hits and two runs. The Guardians are averaging 4.51 runs, while their pitching is giving up 3.99 runs per game. The offense is ranked 13th, while the pitching is ranked 5th. They have a positive run difference of 0.52 which is 9th in the league. Jose Ramirez has hit 34 home runs and driven in 106 RBIs so far this season. Getting the start for the Guardians will be Ben Lively, who sits with an 11-9 record and an ERA of 4.07. In his last start against the Kansas City Royals, he went four innings giving up seven hits and four runs. 

Cleveland Guardians vs Chicago White Sox Prediction

This game is going to be higher scoring. I don’t trust Lively, and the White Sox offense has confidence after they scored seven runs on Sunday. They might not score seven runs again here, but they are going to score enough to keep this game higher scoring. The Guardians’ offense is averaging 4.51 runs per game, and they are going to have no issue running up the score. Back the over.
