This is a 10* on CHICAGO

Detroit has beaten Chicago four straight times going back to early July. That doesn’t make a whole lot of sense when you look at the two teams’ respective records for the season. The Tigers are 75-80 and seem headed for what would be a sixth straight losing season. The White Sox are 88-68 and clinched the AL Central on Thursday. Before losing the last four games to the Tigers, Chicago was 9-2 against them this year. Coming off a 5-2 win in Cleveland on Sunday, we expect the White Sox to gain a measure of revenge in this make-up game. The Tigers lost two of three to Kansas City over the weekend and will be without one of their hottest hitters, Victor Reyes, on Monday. That makes the job easier for Chicago’s Dallas Keuchel, who is getting the start this afternoon. Keuchel has given up just two runs each of his last two starts. Matt Manning will start for the Tigers. He has a 5.87 ERA in two starts vs. the White Sox. Despite pitching better recently, Manning has a higher ERA and WHIP compared to Keuchel this year. The White Sox are definitely the superior team and we can’t see them losing again to Detroit. Play on CHICAGO
