Preview

The Chicago White Sox and the Los Angeles Dodgers will play the 2nd game of the series at the Guaranteed Rate Field on Wednesday night. The White Sox beat the Dodgers 4-0 in the first of the series. Michael Kopech tossed 6 scoreless innings  and struck out 8.

Chicago White Sox

The White Sox get here with a 26-27 record and have won their last 3 games. The team is averaging 3.65 runs per game and allowing 4.73 runs. Jose Abreu leads with 7 home runs and 23 RBI while Tim Anderson is batting for .356 avg.

Dylan Cease leads the team with a 3.39 ERA, 81 strikeouts and 4 wins recorded for the White Sox.

Probable Pitcher:

Johnny Cueto (0-2, 2.92 ERA) will be on the mound for the White Sox in the 1st game of the series. Cueto took the loss, giving up 4 runs (three earned) on seven hits while striking out five in six innings of an 8-3 defeat Thursday in Toronto. In his last 3 starts against the Dodgers he has a 5.96 ERA and 14 strikeouts across 15.1 innnigs pitched.

Los Angeles Dodgers

The Dodgers get here with a 35-20 record and have lost 6 of their last 8 games. The team is averaging .251 at bat scoring 5.37 runs per game while allowing 3.2 runs. Mookie Bets leads the team batting for .303 AVG. and 16 home runs. Trea Turner has 44 RBI. 

Tyler Anderson has gone three straight starts without giving up a run and is leading the team with a 2.59 ERA, 53 strikeouts and 7 wins recorded.

Probable Pitcher

Tony Gonsolin (6-0, 1.59 ERA) will take the mound in the 2nd game of the series for the Dodgers. Gonsolin earned the win over the Mets on Thursday, tossing 6 scoreless innings and allowing 2 hits and 1 walk while striking out 5.

BETTING TRENDS

LA Dodgers are 4-1 SU in their last 5 games against Chi White Sox.

The total has gone UNDER in 5 of LA Dodgers' last 6 games on the road.

The total has gone UNDER in 5 of Chi White Sox's last 7 games against LA Dodgers.

Chi White Sox are 8-4 SU in their last 12 games when playing at home against LA Dodgers.

Prediction

The White Sox took advantage of Kopech's great start on Tuesday and beat the Dodgers 4-0 but they'll now face Gonsolin who has been one of the strongest starters for the Dodgers. The White Sox will send Cueto to the mound who has had 2 last bad starts and it's hard to know what to expect from him. I definitely not see the Dodgers going in blank again and with Gonsolin on the mound I think the bounce back and beat Chicago.

PICK: Dodgers -1.5 (-105)
