Our Chicago White Sox vs New York Mets Prediction
The Mets are the small favorite in this game; however, the under looks to be the best betting option. Even though the total is set low, the home/away splits for the starting pitchers have been strong enough to suggest few runs could be scored in this game.
McLean has made 12 away starts this season, having allowed 27 runs (21 earned) over 70.0 innings. Newcomb, on the other hand, has been mainly a bullpen arm, as he has made 26 home appearances (no starts). That said, Newcomb has allowed just eight runs (6 earned) over 35.1 innings.
On top of that, the Mets have been an inconsistent offense all season; therefore, our Chicago White Sox vs New York Mets prediction is: Under 8 Total Runs.
