Chicago White Sox Recap

The Chicago White Sox come into this one looking to build some momentum after picking up an 8-4 series-opening win on Monday. The win kept the ball rolling after Chicago’s rare series win over the Oakland A’s from this past weekend.

White Sox Trying To Avoid Making Wrong Kind Of History

Going into Monday’s opener, Gavin Sheets has a .242 batting average and a .312 OBP along with 24 doubles and 45 RBIs while Andrew Vaughn has 17 homers and 64 RBIs and Andrew Benintendi has 17 home runs and 55 RBIs with Vaughn logging 29 doubles as well as a team-high 128 hits.

Los Angeles Angels Recap

The Los Angeles Angels could definitely use a bounce-back performance here after coming out on the wrong foot with their loss to the White Sox in Monday’s matchup. The loss made it 6 straight for the Halos who are trying to rebound from series losses to the Astros, Twins, and Rangers in the last week and a half.

Angels Trying To Finish Season On High

Entering Monday, Taylor Ward has 131 hits along with 26 doubles, 24 home runs, and 68 RBIs while Zach Neto has 31 doubles, 21 home runs, a team-high 71 RBIs, 126 strikeouts, and 29 stolen bases. Luis Rengifo also has 85 hits and 24 stolen bases while Jo Adell has 20 home runs, 62 RBIs, and 15 stolen bases as well. Logan O’Hoppe has 106 hits and Neto has 127 hits as well with O’Hoppe adding 19 homers and 55 RBIs.

LA Angels vs Chicago White Sox Prediction

I’m not rushing to bet on this one, but if I were, I’d back the White Sox. Chicago’s not winning many Games this season, but with so few Games to play, it almost seems like the White Sox have kicked things into high gear to avoid setting the record for most losses in a season. The Angels are just playing out the string for pride and contract obligations at this point and it just feels like the White Sox are trying harder for what it’s worth. Give me Chicago in this one.
