Backing the White Sox bats without Luis Robert is gross, I can admit that. With that being said, without him they have still hit this in three of their last six games. This is far from a good offense but two runs isn’t asking for them to have a day for the record books, as simple as a man on base and a deep shot could do it.
Cincinnati Reds vs. Chicago White Sox Prediction
The reason we love this bet is fading Nick Lodolo. I really think Lodolo has good stuff and could be something serious one day, today isn’t that day. Last year he allowed 2+ runs in the first five innings in six of his seven starts. Among those games was against a similar White Sox team who scored three runs on him in just 3.2 innings pitched.
Lodolo hasn’t pitched a MLB game since May of last year, I expect some rust. Additionally, he allowed four runs in the third inning of his assignment and struggled with command hitting batters. If he continues to struggle with his command we have a really good chance at getting two men to cross home plate quickly. Let's roll!
