The Cleveland Guardians and the Chicago White Sox meet Sunday in MLB action from Rate Field. We will look at this from a betting perspective and determine the best bets for this game. Here’s a Cleveland Guardians vs. Chicago White Sox prediction.
The Cleveland Guardians will send out Joey Cantillo for the start here and Cantillo is 8-7 with a 3.87 ERA and 125 strikeouts this season. Davis Martin will start for the White Sox and is 9-6 with a 4.13 ERA and 107 strikeouts this season.
The Cleveland Guardians come into this game looking to shake off their 6-3 loss at the hands of the White Sox on Saturday to slip to 58-60 this season. After this series, the Guardians will head on the road for a series against the Detroit Tigers.
Chase DeLauter has 102 hits with 21 doubles, 12 home runs and 56 RBIs while Steven Kwan has 94 hits with 14 doubles, a home run and 21 RBIs and Jose Ramirez has 73 hits with 18 doubles, 10 home runs and 35 RBIs this season. Brayan Rocchio has also added 101 hits with 17 doubles, 9 home runs and 50 RBIs this season while Angel Martinez has 59 hits with 13 doubles, 11 homers and 36 RBIs and Rhys Hoskins has added 43 hits with 13 doubles, 12 home runs and 36 RBIs. Daniel Schneemann has 52 hits with 11 doubles, 6 home runs and 28 RBIs this season.
The Chicago White Sox come into this game looking to add on to their win over Cleveland from Saturday to improve to 60-56 this season. After this series, the White Sox will take on the Cincinnati Reds in a set at home.
Munetaka Murakami has 67 hits with 24 home runs and 51 RBIs while Miguel Vargas has 99 hits with 25 doubles, a triple, 24 home runs and 67 RBIs and Colson Montgomery has 88 hits with 18 doubles, 25 home runs and 65 RBIs. Luisangel Acuna has 41 hits and Tristan Peters has 81 hits with 21 doubles and 38 RBIs so far this season. Chase Meidroth also has 112 hits with 20 doubles, 11 home runs and 44 RBIs this year.
I’m backing the under in this game. I think that Davis Martin can have a solid bounce back start at home against a Cleveland team that just can’t get out of their own way right now, while the White Sox have had some issues against lefties and I think Cantillo can be in a good spot here as well. Give me the under.
