Best Bet of the Day
MLB: Chicago White Sox -1.5 vs Detroit Tigers
2:10 pm ET
The White Sox have been frustrating but they are the better team in this matchup. They have at least taken care of the Tigers this season with a 9-3 record after yesterday’s win. In addition to the Tigers’ struggles against the White Sox, they have been a punching bag to plenty of teams lately. They lost 9 of their last 11 games and are 6-17 since the all-star break. The White Sox have got the job done against Detroit this season and they can do so again. Check out our full preview of Tigers vs White Sox.
