Pittsburgh will look to pull off a big upset this Tuesday, as they take on the Chicago White Sox at Guaranteed Rate Field in a game that really does not have a ton of playoff implications.
Pittsburgh Pirates
The Pittsburgh Pirates have had a brutal season, but they have been very competitive in their last 10 winning 6 of those contests, so they really should not be underestimated when they take on the White Sox in this one.
Yoshi Tsutsugo has been the hero on many occasions which was capped off with a walk off home run and he seems like he is fitting in perfectly since coming over to Pittsburgh. There have been a few other players getting the job done with the bat like Brian Reynolds who has been getting the job done all year long.
Bryse Wilson will head to the mound for this one and he has not been half bad this year with a 2-5 record and a very respectable 4.35 ERA, so he might be able to have more success in this spot than most people give him credit for.
Chicago White Sox
The Chicago White Sox also seem to be hitting their stride going 4-2 in their last 6 and they must be happy to have Luis Robert back, as he comes into this game off the back of a two home run performance.
This offense has been performing at a very high level lately as well, with the White Sox scoring 10, 17 and 13 runs within just their last 4 games so it is a scary spot that Bryse Wilson is walking into.
Lucas Giolito has not really had the best season this year, so he will be looking to improve his stats here against the Pirates, as he only has a 3.68 ERA and a 9-9 record. This Pirates offense has not been too bad recently either so he will need to show up with his A stuff to get through this lineup.

Free Pittsburgh Pirates vs. Chicago White Sox MLB Prediction:
I really can see both of these teams putting up runs in this spot, as Giolito has not exactly been amazing this year and the White Sox can basically hit anyone at this point and with the way they are rolling right now they might be able to get this game over the total by themselves.
This total opened up at 8.5 and has already been bet up to 9 and I do not think the over money is going to stop between now and first pitch, so this might be one to get on sooner rather than later.
