Point Spread: -1.50 | 130.00 Chi White Sox (Home)
Result: Win
This is an 8* "RUN-LINE DESTRUCTION" on the Chicago White Sox.

Both teams are coming off losses, but I believe the clear talent discrepancy on the mound tonight absolutely justifies in laying the 1.5 runs for the decent return on investment. The Royals have fallen below .500 for the first time since early June as their offense has struggled, scoring just five runs in three losses at Boston over the weekend. The home side will be pleny motivated here as well after the Royals swept them at US Cellular earlier in the season and it has to also be liking its chances in sending ace Chris Sale (8-1, 2.08 ERA) to the hill; Sale is 2-0 with a 1.52 ERA over his last three starts which included allowing one run over 7 2/3's innings in his team's 5-4 loss at Boston in his last outing. Note that the hard-throwing southpaw will be pitching on 11 days rest and that he's 2-0 with a very respectable 2.03 ERA with 18 K's in 13 1/3's innings when getting at least six days rest between starts. The visitors counter with Jeremy Guthrie (5-8, 4.56 ERA) who has been shelled in his last two starts, going just four frames in each; most recently he gave up eight runs in a 16-4 loss to Detroit. While Guthrie has enjoyed some success against the White Sox in the past, there's no question that he's struggling right now and "recent performance" is always a key factor that I look at when making a wager of this type; I like Chicago to bounce back from last night's defeat and to cover the spread on the RUN LINE.
