AAA's Afternoon "ASSASSIN!" (+$12K MLB Y-T-D!)
(MLB) Minnesota vs. Chi White Sox,
Money Line: -163.00 Chi White Sox (Home)
Result: Win
This is an 8* "ASSASSIN" on the Chicago White Sox.

We think Carlos Rodon and the White Sox are well worth the price of admission in this spot. The visitors turn to Tommy Milone (0-2, 5.33) who returned to the majors to face the Yankees on Friday and would promptly get rocked for four runs off six hits with three walks and one K over 3.2 innings in the setback. Milone will remain in the rotation as the Twins have little options, he's 0-2 with a 5.51 ERA on the road this year. Rodon's 2-6, 4.09 ERA record is not indicative of the way he's been throwing of late. Most recently he gave up two runs off six hits with two walks while striking out eight over 5.2 innings in an unfortunate no-decision vs. the Jays on Friday. Rodon has now held his opposition to two or fewer earned runs in six of his last seven starts and has to be feeling pretty confident in this position, as he owns a highly respectable 2.64 ERA in all "day" games this year. These are two teams equally as desperate for a win, but this is also a clear pitching mismatch. We have a very hard time seeing Rodon and the White Sox coming in complacent and look for this focus to ultimately pave the way to a relatively easy victory once it's all said and done. Play on CHICAGO.
