Detroit Tigers vs. Chicago White Sox Prediction
I’m on the Tigers here. I get the case to be made for the White Sox after taking it to the Tigers on Tuesday, and Gipson-Long making his first start at this level since 2023. However, sustained success and the Chicago White Sox are not two things that have consistently gone together in recent years, and I think the Tigers take it to the White Sox once again here. Give me the Tigers in this one.
