The White Sox are slowly climbing back into the thick of things in the AL Central by winning the games they should. Chicago will go for the sweep over KC on Sunday to try and get above .500 for the 1st time on this short year.
KC had some success against the White Sox in 2019 going 10-9 against the South Siders. The Royals also played Chicago well in the series opener losing 2-3 but the wheels fell off in a 11-4 defeat Saturday night.
Chicago White Sox
Chicago showed what they can do on offense Saturday by plating 11 runs. It was the 2nd time scoring in double digits in eight games this season for the Sox.
The White Sox scored those 11 runs while ‘only’ hitting 2 HRs. One of those was from Luis Robert who seems to have found his niche in the lead off role going 4-6. Robert and Moncada were 7-11 from the 1-2 spot Saturday.
Dylan Cease is hoping the Sox offense saved some runs for his start Sunday afternoon. The 2nd year pitcher didn’t look so great in his 2020 debut, giving up 4ER in just 2.0 IP to Cleveland.
Kansas City Royals
The Royals might be coming back to reality after good-for-them three wins in the first seven games. The Royals are on the verge of being swept though which has plummeted them to the bottom of the AL Central.
If there’s one bright spot for the Royals coming into Sunday’s finale it’s that they got to Cease in their only time facing him, scoring 4 ER in 6.0 IP last July.
Jakob Junis comes off the COVID list for his first pitches of 2020. It’s a rough spot for the right-hander having to face a streaking Sox offense with a minimal Spring/Summer. Junis had a 5.24 ERA in 2019.
MLB Baseball Betting Trends:
- White Sox are 4-9 last 13 games
- Royals are 2-8 last 10 home games
- White Sox are 3-6 in last 9 head to head meetings
Free Chicago White Sox vs. Kansas City Royals MLB Prediction:
The easy pick in this one is Chicago but it’s hard to tell if there’s value with the line being released so late. Hopefully oddsmakers jack up the total because this one seems like a great bet to contrarian play the over.
4* Free MLB Betting Pick: Under
Cease should be better than his debut and when a team scores double digits one night they usually putter out the next game.
