Toronto Blue Jays vs Chicago White Sox Prediction

I refuse to believe the Blue Jays are going to get swept by an awful team such as the White Sox. Even with a couple of wins this weekend, the White Sox pitching numbers are horrendous. Not a great pitching matchup, but there’s a talent gap between these teams. There are no excuses for the Blue Jays. Give me the road team in a bounce-back showing.
