[gambcom-standard rankid=”4141″ ]

The Chicago White Sox (40-121) and Detroit Tigers (86-75) wrap up the regular season Sunday at Comerica Park. First pitch is scheduled for 3:20 p.m. ET. Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s MLB odds around the White Sox vs. Tigers odds and make our expert MLB picks and predictions for the best bets.

Season series: Tigers lead 10-2

The White Sox have won 4 of the past 5 games, which is crazy, but that’s 10% of its win total for the entire season. The pitching has picked up the pace, allowing just 9 runs in the past 5 games, or 1.8 runs per game (RPG). That includes 2 shutout wins, including a 4-0 win in Detroit on Saturday.

The Under has cashed in 6 straight for Chicago, while going 9-0-1 in the past 10 outings since Sept. 17.

The Tigers, who have already clinched a postseason spot, have been on fire in the month of September. Detroit is 6-1 in the past 7 games, and 15-4 in the past 19 games since Sept. 7. The Under is 5-0-1 in the past 6 outings, while going 11-3-1 in the previous 15 games since Sept. 12.

Detroit will be the No. 2 or 3 Wild Card in the AL playoffs, making its 1st playoff appearance since 2014.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”4132″ ]

White Sox at Tigers picks and predictions

Prediction

White Sox 3, Tigers 2

Moneyline

The WHITE SOX (+200) are worth a roll in the dice in the finale, as they look to finish on a strong note as they ride off into the offseason to regroup.

The Tigers (-250) are into the postseason, and while they can change their seeding, they won’t be using one of their top pitchers, as they try to preserve the good arms for the playoffs.

Run line/Against the spread

If you’re a little more conservative, and you just can’t bring yourself to play Chicago straight up, the WHITE SOX +1.5 (-105) aren’t a bad play for a little insurance.

Chicago has picked up the pace with 4 wins in the past 5 games, as its young players to build some momentum heading into 2025.

Over/Under

UNDER 7.5 (-110) might be the best play on the board.

The total has gone low in 6 in a row for the ChiSox, while going 9-0-1 in the past 10 outings. The Under has a slight 3-2-1 advantage in the past 6 starts for Cannon, too.

For the Tigers, the Under is 5-0-1 in the previous 6 contests, while cashing at an 11-3-1 clip in the past 15 outings.

Analyzing Saturday’s Chicago White Sox at Detroit Tigers odds and lines, with MLB expert picks, predictions and best bets.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”4141″ ]

The Detroit Tigers (86-74) welcome the Chicago White Sox (39-121) to Comerica Park Saturday for the 2nd game of a 3-game series. First pitch is set for 1:10 p.m. ET. Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s MLB odds around the White Sox vs. Tigers odds and make our expert MLB picks and predictions for the best bets.

Season series: Tigers lead 10-1

The White Sox lost 4-1 Friday to open up their 3-game series with the Tigers.

Chicago snapped a 3-game losing streak with the loss. It beat the Los Angeles Angels in all 3 games prior to this series. The White Sox are just 3-6 over their last 9 games, though. They are 16-63 on the road and 66-94 against the spread (ATS) overall.

The Tigers have been among the hottest teams in baseball over the last few months. They have rallied off 6 straight wins and clinched a playoff spot for the first time in 10 years. Detroit is in the 2nd AL Wild Card spot, 1 game ahead of the Kansas City Royals. It is 43-36 at home on the season and 88-72 ATS overall.

White Sox at Tigers projected starters

RHP Sean Burke vs. TBD

Burke (1-0, 1.93 ERA) makes his 3rd start and 4th appearance. The rookie has a 1.00 WHIP, 2.6 BB/9 and 10.3 K/9 through 14 innings.

Last start: No-decision, 6 IP, 1 ER, 2 H, 1 BB, 8 K in 4-2 road loss to San Diego Padres Sunday (only career away appearance)
Has never faced Tigers

The Tigers had not yet announced a starter, but RHP Beau Brieske (4-4, 3.56 ERA) is expected to serve as the opener. He has a 1.28 WHIP, 4.1 BB/9 and 9.3 K/9 through 65 2/3 innings in 45 appearances (11 starts).

Last outing: Win, 2 IP, 0 ER, 0 H, 0 BB, 0 K in 4-3 home victory vs. Tampa Bay Rays Thursday

[gambcom-standard rankid=”4132″ ]

White Sox at Tigers picks and predictions

Prediction

Tigers 4, White Sox 3

Moneyline

PASS.

The Tigers (-250) have clinched the playoffs and should be riding high. However, playing them at this size of a favorite isn’t advised. Avoid a moneyline play.

Run line/Against the spread

BET WHITE SOX +1.5 (-110).

Detroit doesn’t need this game, and while it should still want to win for playoff seeding, it had a party Friday night. It has won 6 in a row, but it has only covered this size of a spread in 3 of the games. The Tigers have had 5 of their last 9 wins come by just 1 run.

Similarly, Chicago has a solid pitcher taking the mound who still has something to prove having just begun his career. Four of Chicago’s last 8 games have been within 1 run.

Expect a close battle, and take WHITE SOX +1.5 (-110).

Over/Under

BET UNDER 7.5 (-105).

The White Sox have gone Under in 5 straight games and are 0-8-1 O/U in their last 9. They are 66-85-9 O/U on the season. Chicago has scored 3 or fewer runs in 7 of their last 9 games as well.

The Tigers are a similar story. They have gone Under in 2 straight games and are 0-4-1 O/U in their last 5. Detroit has allowed just 1 run in 3 of its last 4 games. Couple all that together, and back UNDER 7.5 (-105).

Chicago White Sox at Detroit Tigers odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Friday’s Chicago White Sox at Detroit Tigers odds and lines, with MLB expert picks, predictions and best bets.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”4141″ ]

The Chicago White Sox (39-120) and Detroit Tigers (85-74) meet Friday to open a 3-game series. First pitch from Comerica Park is set for 6:40 p.m. ET. Let’s analyze FanDuel Sportsbook’s MLB odds around the White Sox vs. Tigers odds and make our expert MLB picks and predictions for the best bets.

Season series: Detroit leads 9-1

Chicago dismantled the Los Angeles Angels 7-0 Thursday while covering as a +118 home underdog. The White Sox were able to avoid what would be a record-breaking 121st loss thanks to a 7-run 5th inning. RHP Chris Flexen got the win (6 1/3 IP, 0 ER, 5 H, 1 BB, 7 K).

Detroit escaped with a 4-3 win over the Tampa Bay Rays Thursday while covering as a -149 home favorite. The Tigers are locked into a 3-team AL Central race for the final 2 Wild Card playoff spots.

Detroit’s win keeps the Tigers tied with Kansas City while Minnesota is 2 1/2 games behind.

White Sox at Tigers projected starters

LHP Garrett Crochet vs. Undecided

Crochet (6-12, 3.68 ERA) makes his 32nd start. He has a 1.06 WHIP, 2.0 BB/9 and 12.9 K/9 in 142 IP.

Last start: No-decision, 4 IP, 0 ER, 1 H, 0 BB, 8 K in a 3-2 loss at San Diego Padres Friday
Career vs. Detroit: 0-1, 2.25 ERA (16 IP, 4 ER), 11 H, 12 BB, 21 K in 8 appearances (1 start)

Over/Under (O/U): 7.5 (O: +100 | U: -122)

[gambcom-standard rankid=”4132″ ]

White Sox at Tigers picks and predictions

Prediction

Tigers 5, White Sox 1

Moneyline

PASS.

The Tigers will pick up the win here as -164 favorites and give Chicago its record-breaking loss, but Detroit is not worth the risk of betting on as such a heavy favorite.

I recommend betting on the spread and/or O/U instead of this bet, but if you are okay with the risk associated with this bet, you can divvy up units between the ML and spread.

Run line/Against the spread

LEAN TIGERS -1.5 (+128).

Detroit is the hotter team and has dominated Chicago this season, winning 9 of 10 matchups and not allowing the White Sox to finish within 1 run in any of Detroit’s last 5 wins vs. Chicago.

This is a lean because Chicago has finished within 1 run of the Tigers in 4 of its last 9 losses to Detroit and because the White Sox do not want to break the record for most losses in a season, so they have motivation in this matchup.

Over/Under

BET UNDER 7.5 (-122).

The Under has hit in 4-straight for Chicago and is 8-1-1 in its last 10 overall. For Detroit, the Under is 3-0-1 in its last 4 at home and 3-0-1 in its last 4 overall. The Under has also hit in 2 of the last 3 meetings in Detroit.

Chicago White Sox at San Diego Padres odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Sunday’s Chicago White Sox at San Diego Padres odds and lines, with MLB expert picks, predictions and best bets.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”3011″ ]

The San Diego Padres (89-66) welcome the Chicago White Sox (36-119) to Petco Park Sunday for the finale of a 3-game series. First pitch is set for 4:10 p.m. ET. Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s MLB odds around the White Sox at Padres odds and make our expert MLB picks and predictions for the best bets.

Season series: Padres lead 2-0

The Padres beat the White Sox 3-2 to open the series Friday and then continued that streak with a 6-2 win Saturday, closing as heavy favorites in both. They have won 7 of their last 8 games and sit 2nd in the NL West. San Diego is 44-36 at home on the season and 79-76 against the spread (ATS).

The White Sox did sustain a 3-game winning streak Sept. 14-16, but are now riding a 4-game skid. They lost a series 2-1 to the Los Angeles Angels Monday through Wednesday. Chicago, despite that win streak, has still dropped 8 of its last 11 games. It is 16-61 on the road and 63-92 ATS.

White Sox at Padres projected starters

RHP Sean Burke vs. RHP Yu Darvish

Burke (1-0, 2.25 ERA) makes his 2nd start and 3rd appearance. He has a 1.38 WHIP, 3.4 BB/9 and 9.0 K/9 through 8 innings.

Last start: Win, 5 IP, 2 ER, 5 H, 2 BB, 5 K in 4-3 home victory over Oakland A’s Sunday
2024 stats with Triple-A Charlotte: 2-6, 4.62 ERA (64 1/3 IP, 33 ER), 1.29 WHIP, 12.0 K/9 in 16 starts
Has never faced Padres

Darvish (6-3, 3.21 ERA) makes his 15th start. He has a 1.11 WHIP, 2.4 BB/9 and 8.4 K/9 through 70 innings.

Last start: Win, 6 IP, 0 ER, 3 H, 2 BB, 3 K in 3-1 home victory over Houston Astros Monday
2024 home stats: 3-3, 3.75 ERA (48 IP, 20 ER), 1.21 WHIP, 8.3 K/9 in 10 starts

[gambcom-standard rankid=”3012″ ]

White Sox at Padres picks and predictions

Prediction

Padres 5, White Sox 2

Moneyline

PASS.

The Padres (-350) are again a hefty favorite in this one, so much so that there is no moneyline play. The White Sox are unlikely to avoid a sweep here.

Run line/Against the spread

BET PADRES -2.5 (+110).

The Padres have been winning with ease as of late. They won a series against the Astros 2-1 Monday through Wednesday and swept the San Francisco Giants in 3 games Sept. 13-15.

The White Sox have lost 2 of their last 4 games by more than 2 runs. Chicago has scored a total of 7 runs over its last 4 games and will be facing a strong starting option in Darvish. Expect the Padres to again win by a sizable margin, and take PADRES -2.5 (+110).

Over/Under

BET UNDER 7.5 (+100).

The White Sox haven’t been able to score consistently as of late and have gone Under in 3 of their last 4 games. They are 0-3-1 O/U in that stretch. They are 66-80 O/U on the season. Chicago is 3-8-1 O/U in its last 12.

The Padres have gone Under in 5 of their last 6 games (0-5-1 O/U) and allowed a total of just 4 runs over their last 3.

Take UNDER 7.5 (+100).

The White Sox have only 9 wins since the All-Star break. They have lost 2 in a row after winning 3 straight and are coming off a 4-3 loss at the Los Angeles Angels on Wednesday.

White Sox at Padres picks and predictions

Prediction

Padres 4, White Sox 2

Moneyline

At this point, you should probably never bet on the White Sox on the moneyline. They have the fewest wins in all of baseball. They have only 9 wins since the All-Star Game.

The Padres have won 10 of their last 15, but betting them at -250 isn’t worth the action.

PASS.

Run line/Against the spread

Twelve of Chicago’s last 13 losses have been by at least 2 runs while 10 of the Padres’ last 13 wins have been by 2 or more runs.

The White Sox are 31-44 ATS on the road.

BET PADRES -1.5 (-110).

Over/Under

Six of the Padres’ last 7 games have not reached 8 total runs while 4 of the last 6 for Chicago have not either. Five of their last 8 losses have not either.

Five of Musgrove’s 7 starts since returning from IL had not reached 8 total runs.

The Angels were swept by the visiting Houston Astros over the weekend, losing all 3 games by exactly 2 runs apiece. The Under cashed in 2 of 3 games, too, although the Over is on a 5-2-1 pace in the past 8 outings.

White Sox at Angels projected starters

RHP Jonathan Cannon vs. LHP Reid Detmers

Cannon (3-10, 4.56 ERA) makes his 19th start and 21st appearance. He has a 1.40 WHIP, 3.6 BB/9 and 6.2 K/9 in 106 2/3 IP.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”3012″ ]

White Sox at Angels picks and predictions

Prediction

White Sox 6, Angels 5

Moneyline

The WHITE SOX (+155) are worth playing as moderate underdogs in the series opener with the Angels (-190) in this battle of eliminated teams.

Chicago comes in with a little bit of momentum, winning 2 in a row. The White Sox are looking for their 1st 3-game winning streak since June 27-29.

You can’t back the Angels (-190), risking nearly twice your potential return, as they enter this one on a 5-game skid while losing 7 of the previous 8 outings.

Run line/Against the spread

If you’re a little more conservative and just can’t bring yourself to play Chicago straight up, WHITE SOX +1.5 (-140) is not priced out of line. Chicago is a respectable 4-6 on the run line as an underdog in the past 10 games while winning all 4 of those games outright.

Over/Under

OVER 8 (-115) might be the best play on the board in this series opener.

The Over is on a 5-2-1 run across the past 8 games for the Angels while splitting 5-5 across the past 10 outings at home.

For the White Sox, the O/U has split 2-2 in the past 4 outings, while the Over is 5-2 in the previous 7 contests on the road.

Analyzing Sunday’s Oakland A’s at Chicago White Sox odds and lines, with MLB expert picks, predictions and best bets.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”3011″ ]

The Chicago White Sox (34-115) welcome the Oakland A’s (65-84) to Guaranteed Rate Field Sunday for the finale of their 3-game series. First pitch is set for 2:10 p.m. ET. Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s MLB odds around the A’s vs. White Sox odds and make our expert MLB picks and predictions for the best bets.

Season series: A’s lead 3-2

The A’s beat the White Sox 2-0 to open the series Friday then came up short Saturday, dropping the 2nd game 7-6.

They have won 3 of their last 5 games, beating the Houston Astros in 2 of 3 on the road in the series prior. Oakland sits 4th in the AL West and is soundly outside of the playoffs race. It is 3-4 in its last 7 road games and 29-45 on the road this season.

The White Sox snapped a 4-game losing streak with the win Saturday. They were swept by the Cleveland Guardians at home in the series prior, having been outscored 16-7 in that series. Chicago is 19-58 at home on the season and 59-90 against the spread (ATS).

A’s at White Sox projected starters

LHP JP Sears vs. RHP Sean Burke

Sears (11-10, 4.18 ERA) makes his 30th start. He has a 1.19 WHIP, 2.4 BB/9 and 6.8 K/9 in 163 2/3 IP.

Last start: No-decision, 6 IP, 0 ER, 4 H, 2 BB, 1 K in 4-3 road win over the Houston Astros Tuesday

[gambcom-standard rankid=”3012″ ]

A’s at White Sox picks and predictions

Prediction

A’s 6, White Sox 3

Moneyline

PASS.

The White Sox have been awful this season and are closing in the MLB record for losses in a season (120). The A’s, on the other hand, are too expensive to play on the moneyline.

Run line/Against the spread

BET A’S -1.5 (-120).

The White Sox are starting a pitcher who didn’t necessarily thrive at the AAA level and might struggle in his debut. The White Sox have also failed to cover in 4 of their last 5 games. Chicago is 1-7 ATS in its last 8 home games.

The A’s are 3-2 ATS in their last 5 games and are 2-1 both straight up and ATS in Sears’ last 3 games. Oakland is the 4th-best covering team in the majors with an 81-68 ATS record.

Take A’S -1.5 (-120).

Over/Under

BET OVER 8 (-120).

The White Sox have gone Over in 2 of their last 3 games and have found some life from their offense, scoring 4 or more runs in 2 of their last 3 games. They are 6-5 O/U in their last 11 outings.

Oakland has gone north of the total in 3 of its last 4 games, allowing at least 6 runs in 2 of its last 3 games. It is 7-3 O/U in its last 10 games. With that in mind, take OVER 8 (-120).

[gambcom-standard rankid=”3011″ ]

The Chicago White Sox (33-114) welcome the Oakland A’s (64-83) to Guarantee Rate Field Friday for the 1st game of a 3-game series. First pitch is set for 7:40 p.m. ET. Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s MLB odds around the A’s vs. White Sox odds and make our expert MLB picks and predictions for the best bets.

Season series: A’s lead 2-1

The A’s lost to the Houston Astros 6-3 Thursday, closing as a +235 underdog. They won 2 of 3 in that series, coming on top by 1 run in both of its wins. Oakland has struggled over the last 2 weeks, losing 7 of its 12 games since Aug. 31. The A’s are just 28-44 on the road and 80-67 against the spread (ATS).

The White Sox were swept by the Cleveland Guardians in their last series, dropping the final game 6-4 Wednesday. Chicago was outscored a combined 16-7 in the series. It is 2-17 over its last 19 games and 18-57 at home. The White Sox are 58-89 ATS on the season. They are 7 losses from breaking the New York Mets’ MLB record of 120 losses in 1962.

A’s at White Sox projected starters

LHP Brady Basso vs. LHP Garrett Crochet

Basso (0-0, 1.93 ERA) makes his 2nd start in his 5th career appearance. He has a 0.75 WHIP, 1.0 BB/9 and 8.7 K/9 in 9 1/3 IP.

Last start: No-decision, 6 IP, 0 ER, 3 H, 1 BB, 6 K in 2-1 home loss to the Detroit Tigers Saturday
2024 home stats: 0-0, 0.00 ERA (6 IP, 0 ER), 0.67 WHIP, 9.0 K/9 in 1 start
First time facing White Sox

Crochet (6-11, 3.83 ERA) makes his 30th start. He has a 1.10 WHIP, 2.1 BB/9 and 12.8 K/9 in 134 IP.

Last start: Loss, 2 IP, 4 ER, 5 H, 1 BB, 3 K in 7-5 road loss to the Boston Red Sox Saturday

Run line (RL)/Against the spread (ATS): A’s -1.5 (+140) | White Sox +1.5 (-165)
Over/Under (O/U): 8 (O: -115 | U: -105)

[gambcom-standard rankid=”3012″ ]

A’s at White Sox picks and predictions

Prediction

A’s 5, White Sox 4

Moneyline

BET A’S (-125).

Crochet has been the White Sox best option, but they are still just 9-20 with him as the starter. They have won a few games as of late, but have struggled for most of the last few months. Chicago has lost Crochet’s last 3 starts.

The A’s have won 9 of their last 14 road games. While they lost, the A’s gave up just 2 runs in Basso’s lone start of the season. Oakland has had 4 of its last 6 games finish within 1 run, giving the preferred value to the moneyline.

Take A’S (-125).

Run line/Against the spread

PASS.

There’s no good value here. Avoid this play and look toward the moneyline odds for either team for the better option.

Over/Under

BET OVER 8 (-115).

The White Sox are 5-4 O/U in their last 9 games and have scored at least 3 runs in 4 of their last 5 games, showing some offensive life. Chicago has allowed at least 5 runs in 3 straight games.

The A’s have gone Over in their last 2 games and in 6 of their last 8. Oakland has allowed 22 runs in its last 4 games while scoring 12 in their last 3. Considering those trends, take OVER 8 (-115).

Cleveland Guardians at Chicago White Sox odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Wednesday’s Cleveland Guardians at Chicago White Sox odds and lines, with MLB expert picks, predictions and best bets.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”3011″ ]

The Cleveland Guardians (83-62) and Chicago White Sox (33-113) wrap up a 3-game series Wednesday. First pitch from Guaranteed Rate Field is set for 2:10 p.m. ET. Let’s analyze FanDuel Sportsbook’s lines around the Guardians vs. White Sox odds and make our expert MLB picks and predictions for the best bets.

Season series: Guardians lead 7-5

The Guardians limited the White Sox to just 5 hits in a 5-0 victory on Tuesday night, and Cleveland has outscored Chicago 10-2 in the 1st 2 games of the series. The struggling White Sox had actually split the 1st 10 games of the season series entering this 3-game set.

Since the Kansas City Royals pulled into a tie atop the AL Central on Aug. 27, Cleveland has won 8 of the past 12 outings, while the Under is on a 8-0-2 run in the previous 10 contests.

The White Sox have dropped 4 of the past 5 outings, while going 3-20 in the previous 23 contests dating back to Aug. 17. The Under has cashed in 4 of the past 5 outings, too.

Guardians at White Sox projected starters

LHP Matthew Boyd vs. RHP Davis Martin

Boyd (2-1, 2.20 ERA) makes his 6th start. He has a 0.77 WHIP, 1.6 BB/9 and 8.2 K/9 in 28 2/3 IP.

Last start: Win, 6 IP, 1 ER, 3 H (1 solo HR), 0 BB, 6 K in a 3-1 road victory vs. Los Angeles Dodgers Friday
2024 road splits: 1-0, 3.18 ERA, 11 1/3 IP, 4 ER, 3 HR, 0.97 WHIP, .171 opponents’ batting average (OBA), 4 BB, 8 K in 2 starts
Career vs. White Sox: 4-9, 5.12 ERA, 89 2/3 IP, 51 ER, 16 HR, 1.48 WHIP, 10.1 K/9 in 18 starts

Martin (0-3, 3.29 ERA) makes his 8th start and 9th appearance. He has a 1.28 WHIP, 3.5 BB/9 and 8.2 K/9 in 38 1/3 IP.

Last start: No-decision, 6 IP, 1 ER, 3 H, 1 BB, 3 K in 3-1 road loss vs. Boston Red Sox Friday
2024 home splits: 0-1, 3.44 ERA, 18 1/3 IP, 7 ER, 3 HR, 1.47 WHIP, .257 OBA, 8 BB, 18 K in 4 appearances (3 starts)
Career vs. Guardians: Loss, 6 IP, 4 ER, 8 H, 2 BB, 3 K in 4-1 road setback at Progressive Field July 12, 2022, in only career start

Guardians at White Sox odds

Provided by FanDuel Sportsbook; access USA TODAY Sports Scores and Sports Betting Odds hub for a full list. Lines last updated Tuesday at 11:47 p.m. ET.

Moneyline (ML): Guardians -225 (bet $225 to win $100) | White Sox +188 (bet $100 to win $188)
Run line (RL)/Against the spread (ATS): Guardians -1.5 (-130) | White Sox +1.5 (+108)
Over/Under (O/U): 8 (O: -112 | U: -108)

[gambcom-standard rankid=”3012″ ]

Guardians at White Sox picks and predictions

Prediction

Guardians 3, White Sox 2

Moneyline

The Guardians (-225) will set you back more than 2 times your potential return. That’s way too much risk against one of the worst, if not the worst teams in history, the White Sox (+188).

Cleveland hasn’t crushed Chicago pitching, averaging a respectable, but not overwhelming, 5.0 runs per game in this series. But, the Guardians pitching has held the toothless White Sox offense to just 3 total runs, or 1.5 runs per game.

PASS.

Run line/Against the spread

The WHITE SOX +1.5 (+108) are worth a look in the series finale, if you’d like a little insurance, but just cannot play the bumbling team straight up.

While Martin has a dismal 0-3 record, the ERA of 3.29 is very respectable, and the right-handed probably deserves better. Chicago has managed just 14 runs of offense support in Martin’s 7 starts, or 2.0 runs per game (RPG), and it isn’t likely to get much better on Wednesday afternoon.

Over/Under

UNDER 8 (-108) is the best play on the board in this battle under the sun on the south side.

Again, Chicago is averaging 2.0 RPG of offensive support in Martin’s 7 starts, while it ranks last in the majors with just 3.1 RPG this season, with only 115 homers and a .618 OPS, both of which are also last in the majors.

For Cleveland, total bettors have loved it lately, with the total going low at a 8-0-2 run in the past 10 games since Aug. 31.

Cleveland Guardians at Chicago White Sox odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Tuesday’s Cleveland Guardians at Chicago White Sox odds and lines, with MLB expert picks, predictions and best bets.

[gambcom-standard rankid=”3011″ ]

The Cleveland Guardians (82-62) and Chicago White Sox (33-112) play the middle contest of a 3-game series Tuesday. First pitch from Guaranteed Rate Field is set for 7:40 p.m. ET. Let’s analyze FanDuel Sportsbook’s lines around the Guardians vs. White Sox odds and make our expert MLB picks and predictions for the best bets.

Season series: Guardians lead 6-5

The Guardians picked up a 5-3 win in Monday’s series opener. Cleveland fired out to a 5-0 lead after 5 innings, while Chicago posted 3 runs in the bottom of the 7th and 8th to make it interesting. However, the Guards held on for the cover on the run line (-1.5, -140).

The White Sox have been terrible all season, but especially lately. Since Aug. 23, Chicago has dropped 15 of the past 17 outings, and 13 of the losses have been by 2 or more runs.

As far as totals, Chicago has cashed low in 3 of the past 4 games, while the Under is 9-4 in the previous 13 outings. For Cleveland, the Under is 4-0-1 in the past 5 games, and 7-0-2 across the previous 9 contests.

Guardians at White Sox projected starters

RHP Ben Lively vs. RHP Jonathan Cannon

Lively (11-9, 4.07 ERA) makes his 26th start. He has a 1.25 WHIP, 2.9 BB/9 and 7.2 K/9 in 135 IP.

Last start: Loss, 4 IP, 4 ER, 7 H (1 HR), 1 BB, 3 K in 4-1 road setback vs. Kansas City Royals last Wednesday
2024 road splits: 4-7, 4.19 ERA, 68 2/3 IP, 32 ER, 12 HR, 1.27 WHIP, .246 opponents’ batting average (OBA), 23 BB, 59 K in 13 starts
Career vs. White Sox: 1-1, 4.63 ERA, 11 2/3 IP, 6 ER, 1 HR, 1.54 WHIP, 6.2 K/9 in 2 starts

Cannon (3-9, 4.53 ERA) makes his 18th start and 20th appearance. He has a 1.39 WHIP, 2.9 BB/9 and 6.2 K/9 in 101 1/3 IP.

Last start: Win, 5 2/3 IP, 1 ER, 5 H (1 solo HR), 1 BB, 4 K in 8-1 road victory vs. Baltimore Orioles last Wednesday
2024 home splits: 1-4, 4.17 ERA, 54 IP, 25 ER, 8 HR, 1.31 WHIP, .242 OBA, 21 BB, 36 K in 10 appearances (8 starts)

Moneyline (ML): Guardians -220 (bet $220 to win $100) | White Sox +184 (bet $100 to win $184)

[gambcom-standard rankid=”3012″ ]

Guardians at White Sox picks and predictions

Prediction

Guardians 4, White Sox 3

Moneyline

The Guardians (-220) will cost you more than 2 times your potential return against the hapless White Sox (+184). It will be a close shave like Monday’s series opener. Cleveland scratched out a 5-3 win, but Chicago didn’t give up, posting 3 runs against the Guardians bullpen in the late innings to make things interesting. Expect another tight game, as the rookie Cannon hasn’t been half bad.

PASS.

Run line/Against the spread

The WHITE SOX +1.5 (+118) are worth playing in Tuesday’s middle game at plus-money.

Chicago has Cannon on the bump, and he has been pretty consistent at times. The White Sox have won 2 of the past 5 games outright, which is pretty good for them. And, against the Guardians, the White Sox are surprisingly competitive at 5-6. Take the ChiSox to cover as underdogs on the run line.

Over/Under

UNDER 8.5 (-120) is the best play on the board

The total has gone low at a 9-4 pace in the past 13 outings for the White Sox, and the total has gone low at a 7-0-2 clip in the past 9 for the Guardians. In addition, the Under has cashed in 4 of the past 5 games in the series. Lively and Cannon are capable of keeping the scores low early on, too.
