The White Sox have been playing some good baseball and I look for them to keep rolling.
Chicago is the better team and for the most part they have taken care of the Twins. I look for this to happen on Monday.
Giolito was not great in his last start, but I look for him to bounce back and be better in this one. Also, I expect the Twins to get to Burrows early and often.
I will go with the White Sox on the run line.
