The White Sox have a significant advantage today with starting pitching. Lucas Giolito owns a 2.43 ERA over his last 6 starts with 43 strikeouts through 37 innings. Both teams have been equally disappointing this year.

St. Louis throws out Steven Matz 5.02 ERA & a 1.60 WHIP. He has been moderately effective as a relief pitcher, but as a starter he has struggled & this is the situation today for him. I guess the Cardinals continue to give him opportunities to be a starter because they are paying him $11 million dollars a year.

Take the White Sox on the ML or RL & good luck if you tail 🍀.

I forgot to add the Cardinals are just 2-9 when Steven Matz pitches as a starter so yet another reason to take the White Sox today.

@nbw any thoughts on this game ? Lately we’ve been on the same side of certain match ups when I choose to create these pick threads.
Love the money line with the white Sox here.... RL I would be a bit worried as they don’t score enough for me to ride them as a favorite on the RL.

good luck and i a, with you on the ML, passing on RL but hope you crush it pal.

Yeah smart to take the ML. I’m happy to know you align with this play. I respect your handicapping hustle. 🫡

always a good thing when JJ Silver doesn’t agree with a pick... I really like white Sox chances now and may bump my play up a bit after hearing for JJ
Yes, we have done relatively well when he mentions the word “pass”. Let’s see if that continues this afternoon.

Steven Matz pitching his best game so far this year so much for the main reason to bet this game. If this game wins it will just be categorized for me as positive variance if the bullpen blows it later for the Cards, bad pick 👎.

Something I missed here that I should’ve considered. St. Louis is 17-8 on the RL as a road dog, as opposed to Chicago 11-11 on the RL as a home favorite. Learning lesson here for me, will always check this next time & it will have to be a neutral or favorable seasonal trend for my wager.

Info could work both ways though

One could look at that trend for Cardinals and think to buck it instinctively

That's why better to just ignore it, especially for a single game
