Texas Rangers vs Chicago White Sox Prediction

I might take a stab on the White Sox here. Probably not touching it, though. Fedde at least should be good. He’s got just one earned on seven hits and five walks in 11.0 innings over his last two starts, going 1-0 in that time.

On Sunday the White Sox continued their skid. They’ve now lost seven straight Games, scoring two or fewer runs in six of those. Chicago simply has to get the offense going; posting three hits like they did on Sunday just isn’t going to cut it. This one might be worth a value stab if you can find a good line but it’s probably a lost cause.
