Prediction
Pick: Over 0.5 RBIs (+202)
Given Andrew Benintendi's recent form and his importance in the White Sox lineup, betting on him to drive in at least one run seems like a solid pick. The Rangers' pitching, especially their bullpen, has been unreliable, giving Benintendi ample opportunities to capitalize on scoring chances. With Fedde likely to be the toughest challenge, the White Sox should still manage to get runners on base, providing Benintendi with RBI opportunities.
