Chicago White Sox (-150, 7.5) vs. Cleveland Indians - 2:10 PM EST

Carlos Rodón threw the White Sox 20th no hitter in franchise history on Wednesday night, and the BetQL Model is going to back Chicago yet again on Thursday afternoon with a ⭐⭐⭐ play!

The White Sox offense is simply too explosive to bog down and they have had success against Indians pitcher Aaron Civale in the past, hitting .273 against him in 55 at bats. 

Chicago’s offense is leading the MLB in walk rate, drawing a base on balls on over 12% of their at bats. With heightened plate discipline they are going to work counts and force Civale from the game earlier than expected. 

After Civale exits, Tony La Russa’s club is going to get an exhausted Tribe bullpen. 

Zach Plesac was pulled from his start on Wednesday in the first inning, leaving five relievers to finish the 8-0 loss. Factor in that Cleveland hasn’t had an off day since last Thursday, this team is going to be gassed in the final game of a four game set. 

On the other end, Lance Lynn should have great success against a poor Indians offense. Cleveland is 28th in on base percentage, scoring five runs across the three games against the White Sox this week. 

Lynn has also locked down the Indians over his career, allowing a .128 batting average across 39 at bats against the Cleveland bats, striking out 10. 

Bet on the White Sox to take care of business on Thursday afternoon, the BetQL Model believes they should be -174, leaving value on the home team.

Pick: White Sox -150
