Milwaukee Brewers vs Chicago White Sox Prediction
As Ive said before, there’s no reason to back the White Sox, a team that finds itself 16 games below a .500 record despite playing only 30 games. The White Sox have been a joke these last two seasons, and this year is no different. There’s no betting value with the White Sox. If you need more, the Brewers have put together three straight wins, and Patrick has been strong this season. In 25.2 innings, Patrick has allowed 23 hits and seven runs. Patrick has allowed no more than two runs in each of his six starts. I want nothing to do with the White Sox, and of course, I’ll lay the RL to shave down the price with the Brewers.
