White Sox vs Brewers Betting Preview

This game triggered one of our Action PRO Systems, powered by Evan Abrams.

This system identifies early-season road underdogs (games one through nine of a season) when the moneyline is moderately high (+131 to +500).

Early in the year, oddsmakers and the public often overreact to small sample performance or offseason hype, creating pricing inefficiencies.

Underdogs benefit from unpredictability and inconsistent form among favorites.


White Sox vs Brewers Pick, Betting Analysis

Nobody is particularly interested in backing the White Sox, but if I have to do it, I’m fine doing it behind Shane Smith.

The White Sox’s pitching development has been surprisingly good in recent seasons. While Smith’s profile isn’t overwhelming, he’s a half-decent pitcher who picked up over two fWAR last season across 146 innings.

He has a nice high-90s fastball that he pounds the zone with and generates plenty of strikes. If he could control his secondary stuff better and cut back on the walks, he might be in for a breakout season.

At the same time, I’m looking to fade the Brewers.

They won 97 games last season! While Milwaukee is a very well-run organization that always overachieves, that’s a very tough bar to meet.

I suspect the Brew Crew will be slightly overvalued in the early going. And, perhaps the White Sox are slightly undervalued, as this organization seems to be heading in the right direction, at least when it comes to competence.

Pick: White Sox ML (+150 or Better)
