Texas Rangers vs. Chicago White Sox Prediction

I’m going to stick with the under in this one. Two teams that I just simply do not trust offensively, and Leiter has put together a couple of strong outings as of late. Jonathan Cannon’s had some decent starts himself and this just feels like a first to 3 wins kind of game to me. Not because of stellar pitching, just poor offense. Give me the under.

Chris Ruffolo's Pick: Under 8
