MLB Betting Trends
Chicago
The White Sox have won five straight games against a right-handed starter, but they are just 7-20 in their last 27 games following a win.
Los Angeles
The Angels are 6-2 in their last eight games following a loss. However, they are just 7-19 in their last 26 games against a left-handed starter.
Prediction:
The Angels have just turned into a pretty bad team over the last month and tonight they face a lefty, which has been a big problem for them this year. The White Sox have been having success against right-handed pitching lately and I think they can get to Pena while the Angels struggle with Rodon. I am going to take my chances on Chicago tonight against a struggling L.A. team.
The Pick: Chicago White Sox +160
