Orioles at White Sox picks and predictions

Prediction

Orioles 5, White Sox 3

Moneyline

While the White Sox have the pitcher with more upside in this matchup, Kopech hasn’t shown much consistency in the early portion of the season. The ORIOLES (-115) have a good shot to secure a win with Gibson on the mound — and improve to 4-0 in his starts this season — if he can go at least 5 innings.

Run line/Against the spread

ORIOLES -1.5 (+140) has some decent value with the White Sox sputtering in recent games. Kopech has struggled with walks and that could lead to runs against an Orioles team that is tied for the league lead with 21 stolen bases.

Over/Under

LEAN UNDER 9 (-105).

Despite the Orioles swinging a hot bat, the White Sox have failed to generate consistent runs with SS Tim Anderson on the injured list. The Under is 6-0-1 in the last 7 meetings in Chicago and 6-1-1 in the last 8 meetings overall.
