Our Detroit Tigers vs Chicago White Sox Prediction
The Tigers will strike back.
I believe Detroit will bounce back in a big way, covering a -1.5-run spread and making their bettors happy with a fatter bankroll after the game.
Detroit has yet to announce its counter to the White Sox’s starter Shane Smith, but who cares? Smith has been too erratic this season to be trusted. He is 1-4 with a 7.17 ERA in his last five starts. Do you think he is capable of a better mound stint against the avenging Tigers? I don’t think so.
Besides, Detroit is 12-5 SU in its last 17 games against the Chicago White Sox. They are also 13-3 SU in their last 16 games when playing on the road against the Chicago White Sox. In short, the Tigers do not lose consecutive games against the White Sox.
Our betting prediction for the Chicago White Sox vs. Detroit Tigers: the Tigers -1.5 Runs.
