Money Line: -107.00 Chi White Sox (Away)
Result: Win
T.M. Selection: Chicago White Sox.

I like the Chicago White Sox to win this game against the Cleveland Guardians on Wednesday. The White Sox haven't looked great in their games lately but they finally won a game over the Guardians yesterday and I think they will pick up another win here with a chance to split this series. These are really important games for the White Sox since the division is slowly slipping away from them with both the Guardians and the Twins ahead of them now. They can't afford to be losing these games to the Guardians but now that they have pulled off a 7-0 win over them, I expect to see that again here with that offense starting to pick up more in their games. They have been putting up a lot of runs in their games lately and their lineup is also slowly getting some of their stronger players back from injury so they are going to be turning things around soon. Their pitching has also been getting a lot better after a terrible start to the year and I expect them to have another great outing here after that shutout performance last night. The Guardians haven't looked great lately themselves and were not winning many games coming into this series. They had lost 2 series in a row to the Tigers and the Royals, even getting swept in 4 games by the Tigers, and those are both teams with some of the weakest offenses in the league. Lucas Giolito (5-5, 5.05 ERA) is up for the White Sox here and he has been great for them all year. He has been putting up a lot of good numbers in his starts all year, he just had a bad start in his most recent one, giving up 5 runs in that start, but he also struck out 8 batters and that is going to bite against a weaker offensive team like the Guardians have been lately. Aaron Civale (2-5, 6.28 ERA) is up for the Guardians here and he has looked terrible all year. He finally had 1 good start in his most recent one but that has not been a common theme for him this year, giving up a ton of runs in a majority of his starts this year. He also faced the Royals in that good start and they have 1 of the worst offenses in the league. The White Sox have a really good lineup and they just put up 7 runs on the Guardians last night, they will put up runs on Civale here early in this game. I like the White Sox to win this game.

T.M. Prediction: 7-2 White Sox.
