This is a 6* BIG-CHALK CHOKE-OUT on the Chicago White Sox.
I feel that the clear talent discrepancy on the mound in this matchup absolutely justifies in laying this larger price. The Orioles were rolling until they ran into the Tribe over the weekend, Cleveland starters held them to just three runs over 19 2/3's innings to help the Indians take two of three. In all, the O's were held to just five runs and it certainly doesn't get any easier in facing Chris Sale (10-2, 2.01 ERA), the White Sox ace would scatter four hits and strike out a season high-tying 12 through eight scoreless frames in San Francisco in his last outing. While he wasn't nearly as effecient vs. Baltimore on June 23rd, giving up a season-worst 11 hits through six innings, Sale would only surrendur two runs in his team's eventual 6-4 setback (note that Sale left the game with a 4-2 lead). While he's struggled in his last two starts at home, for the most part Sale has once again been dominant at US Cellular this year. The home side comes in with momentum as well, it just took two of three from the Jays, scoring 21 runs in the process after winning 7-5 on Sunday. And that's bad news for Baltimore starter Bud Norris, who despite being pretty medicore of late, has won two straight starts; note that Norris needed 62 pitches two get through the first two of his five innings, ultimately surrendering three runs in his team's 11-3 win over the Yanks on Monday. And if history is any precedence, then Norris can't be liking his chances here, the last time he faced Chicago he was shelled for four runs off nine hits over just 4 1/3's innings in a 4-2 setback last September. I think the writing is on the wall, we can expect Sale to come in focused and I look for Chicago to build off an extremely productive series and take advantage of what looks to be a tired Orioles lineup at the moment; play on the WHITE SOX.
