San Francisco Giants vs Chicago White Sox Prediction

The Giants have cooled off over the last few weeks, but this series is just what the doctor ordered. The White Sox remain a joke of a franchise and there’s zero betting value. Roupp has been respectable this season with a 3.67 ERA, and he’s coming off six shutout innings against the Red Sox. Civale has a 5.03 ERA and 1.47 WHIP on the season, and he’s allowed 15 hits and seven runs in 12 innings with the White Sox. This is a spot where the Giants should get back on track. Give me the road team on Friday night.
