Why The White Sox Will Cover The Spread/Win

The White Sox have already swept the Rays in a three-game series this season. They have only won eight games all year, but three have come against the Rays. Chicago was able to hit the ball very well against the Rays, which is why they were able to sweep them. In the three games, Chicago hit .315 with an .811 OPS. The White Sox hit four home runs, and they scored 21 runs. If the White Sox can have another good offensive game against the Rays, they will be able to improve their record to 4-0 against the Rays.

The White Sox gave up just 12 earned runs against the Rays in the three games played. Their pitching has failed them a little bit this season, but it was very good against the Rays in their series. Chicago needs that to continue in this one. If the White Sox are able to pitch the ball well, and shut down a Rays offense that is not at their best, Chicago will win this game.

Why The Rays Will Cover The Spread/Win

Tampa Bay is coming off a sweep over the New York Mets, so they are playing well. In that series, the Rays offense came alive for 20 runs. They hit nine extra base hits, and walked 19 times in those three games. This is the type of offensive play the Rays need to have in the game Monday night. If the Rays can be patient at the plate, and hit their pitches, they are going to win this game against the White Sox.

The White Sox have the worst batting average in the MLB this season, so do not expect another series like the one they had earlier in the year against the Rays. With that, the White Sox have also hit the least amount of home runs in the MLB, so they do not hit for much power. Tampa Bay should be able to keep the White Sox offense contained in this game, and the series. If they do that, the Rays will win this game.

Final White Sox-Rays Prediction & Pick

Yes, the White Sox have already swept the Rays this season. However, those games were on the road, and the Rays are a worse road team. Tampa Bay is over .500 at home, as well. On the other hand, the White Sox have won just three road games this season. For this game, I am going to go with the Rays spread. It is just very hard to bet on the White Sox this season, so I will not be doing that in this game.
