Chicago White Sox (67-61) and New York Mets (58-71) will play Game 2 of their three-game series on Saturday night at Guaranteed Rate Field. The White Sox will be keen to win again and cement their top position in the AL Central. They rallied late to pick up a crucial 6-4 win over the Mets on Friday with Jake Rodgers hitting the game-winning homer. The White Sox are the slight -120 betting favorites tonight.

New York Mets, on the other side of the grass, are the -110 underdogs as they look for an immediate response. They come into this contest sitting last in the NL East, with a .450 win percentage. The Mets will be disappointed with themselves after throwing away a commanding 4-0 lead last night before losing momentum late in the game. Their rotation roster will be under pressure to provide another effective start tonight and keep the momentum going.

Our Chicago White Sox vs New York Mets Prediction

Our money is on Chicago White Sox to get another win on their home turf. The hosts have a solid 38-25 record at home this season, giving them a slight edge over the Mets, who are 28-36 on the road. However, we cannot quickly write off the Mets, who are 5-10 in their last 15 meetings with the White Sox. The starting pitchers also convince us that the Mets will cover the +1.5 run line. Christian Scott comes with a 4-3 record and a 3.51 ERA. In comparison, Chicago’s Luis Castillo has a 4-9 record and a 4.99 ERA. The right-hander has been inconsistent this season, although his team remains the better overall side in this matchup. This should be a close contest.

Our prediction for Chicago White Sox vs New York Mets: New York Mets on the +1.5 run line.

Prediction:

 

New York Mets on the +1.5 run line.
