Mike Calabrese's White Sox vs Royals Prediction, Betting Analysis
This is a home run prop at north of eight to one. You could actually find it at plus 850 on the market.
The White Sox's young power hitter Colson Montgomery has solid power numbers this month, with five home runs. Also, he's slugging .571 in August.
There is reason to be excited about this young player and what he can do in terms of taking a ball deep tonight.
Pick: Colson Montgomery Home Run (+600, Fanatics)
