Our Chicago Cubs vs Chicago White Sox Prediction
The Cubs are the heavy favorite; however, the White Sox look to be the best betting option. Since coming over from the Blue Jays, Gausman has had a couple of shaky starts. With the Cubs, Gausman has made two starts, having allowed eight earned runs over 11.0 innings.
Hudson, on the other hand, has been more than solid when pitching on the road, but as mentioned, he has not made many starts. In 22 away appearances (two starts), Hudson has allowed eight runs (seven earned) over 22.0 innings.
The White Sox could very well use Hudson as an opener in this matchup, but with Gausman having already struggled with his new team, our Chicago Cubs vs Chicago White Sox prediction is: Chicago White Sox +1.5.
