#930 ASA PLAY ON San Diego Padres -1.5 on the Run Line (-150) over Chicago White Sox, Sunday at 4:10 PM ET - Chicago had a miracle run line cover against the Padres Friday when they had nobody on base and down 2 runs and with 2 outs but then managed to tie the game in the top of the 9th. Saturday things returned to normal as it was another multi-run loss for one of the worst teams in MLB history. Now the White Sox send Sean Burke to the mound Sunday and he pitched most of this season in the minors. His numbers were not impressive and they have not been throughout his minor league career. He is 7-22 with a 5.05 ERA in the minors in his career. His first MLB start was against a bad Oakland team and this will be much tougher against a solid Padres lineup that hits right-handers very well (#1 slugging percentage in NL versus righties YTD). We look for a dominant performance here as Darvish takes advantage of facing a 36-119 White Sox team. The Padres are 44-26 against teams that do not currently have a winning record on the season. Chicago is 18-84 against teams with a winning record this season. 90 of 119 losses by 2 or more runs for White Sox this season. 67 of 89 Padres wins this season by at least 2 runs. 17 of last 22 San Diego wins also by 2 or more runs. In terms of recent trending for Chicago with their losses, the White Sox have had only two 1-run losses among their last 14 defeats. Given numbers like the ones we pointed out above you can see why we are very comfortable laying the 1.5 runs on the run line here. This one looks like a home blowout! Lay the run line in this one!
