Rangers at White Sox picks and predictions

Prediction

Rangers 5, White Sox 3

Moneyline

There aren’t many times when you can get a superior team like the Rangers at these odds against an inferior squad. Texas is 21-14 on the road compared to Chicago posting a 17-18 record at home. BET TEXAS (-130).

Run line/Against the spread

RANGERS -1.5 (+125) has decent value with Texas boasting one of the best lineups in baseball and Cease being inconsistent this season. Of their 45 wins thus far, the Rangers have won by fewer than 2 runs only 4 times.

Over/Under

LEAN UNDER 8.5 (-115).

Eovaldi has been stellar this season for the Rangers and should pitch deep into Tuesday’s contest. The White Sox are also tallying the 2nd-worst wOBA (.289) and wRC+ (81) against right-handed pitching this season.

The Rangers are 4-0-1 in their last 5 games against teams with a losing record and the Under is 4-1 in the last 5 meetings overall.

Texas Rangers at Chicago White Sox odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Monday’s Texas Rangers at Chicago White Sox odds and lines, with MLB expert picks, predictions and best bets.

The Texas Rangers (44-27) and Chicago White Sox (31-42) meet Monday to kick off a 3-game series. First pitch from Guaranteed Rate Field is set for 8:10 p.m. ET. Let’s analyze BetMGM Sportsbook’s lines around the Rangers vs. White Sox odds and make our expert MLB picks and predictions for the best bets.

Season series: First meeting of 2023; Rangers won 4-3 last season

Texas won 11-7 as -142 home favorites Sunday vs. the Toronto Blue Jays. The Rangers found themselves down 6-0 after 2½ innings, but from there it was all Texas, which scored 8 runs by the 5th inning. The Rangers took the series 2-1 — losing Friday and winning Saturday — but are 4-6 in their last 10 games.

Chicago lost 5-1 as +137 road underdogs Sunday vs. the Seattle Mariners despite SP Lance Lynn tying a franchise record with 16 K’s — Lynn was pulled in the bottom of the 8th after yielding a leadoff bunt single. The White Sox never led but kept it close, trailing 2-1, until a 2-out, bases-clearing triple in the 8th. Chicago, which won Saturday in 11 innings, lost the series 2-1 and is 2-6 in its last 8 contests.

Heaney (4-4, 4.05 ERA) makes his 14th start of 2023. He has a 1.32 WHIP, 4.2 BB/9 and 9.5 K/9 through 66 2/3 IP.

Rangers at White Sox picks and predictions

Prediction

Rangers 4, White Sox 3

Moneyline

BET RANGERS (-135).

As mentioned, the Rangers are 4-6 in their last 10 but have won back-to-back games, whereas the White Sox are 3-7 in their last 10. Texas is 20-14 on the road this season; Chicago is 17-17 home, making the Rangers the safer bet here.

Run line/Against the spread

LEAN WHITE SOX +1.5 (-150). 

Bet very lightly here because of the -150 juice. The Rangers have been one of the best teams in baseball this season but are 5-5 in their last 10 vs. the White Sox. According to Covers.com, the Rangers are 9-25 in their last 34 games at the White Sox.

I don’t see Chicago winning this game, but look for them to keep it within 1 run.

Over/Under

LEAN UNDER 9.5 (-120).

The Under is 6-2-2 in Chicago’s last 10 games and 5-1 in its last 6 home games.

It’s a lean because the Rangers are 40-27-4 O/U, including 6-2-2 O/U in their last 10. The Under is 2-1 in the Rangers’ last 3 overall and 6-6 in their last 12 on the road.

The Under is also 3-1 in the last 4 Rangers-White Sox matchups.
