Tigers vs White Sox MLB Betting Preview
This one sets up as an interesting matchup, with both teams bringing some recent offensive success into the game. The Tigers are 72-81 overall and 33-45 on the road, but Riley Greene has been one of their hottest hitters this month.
Greene has posted a 1.072 OPS with 19 RBIs over 65 plate appearances in September, giving Detroit a dangerous bat in the middle of the lineup.
The White Sox, meanwhile, are 78-75 and have been much better at home, going 44-31. Miguel Vargas has also had plenty of success against Detroit this season, slashing .270/.341/.676 with four home runs in 10 games against the Tigers.
With Vargas producing against this opponent and Chicago holding a strong home record, I like the White Sox to have the edge in this matchup.
Tigers vs White Sox Pick, Betting Analysis
The spot here isn't a great one, but the odds are more than high enough to justify this bet.
Sandlin grades out as an average matchup for righty power and the weather over in Chicago is below average for hitting with temps in the high 60s and wind blowing in.
Even factoring in these factors, I have the true odds on Tork around +600.
Pick: Spencer Torkelson 1+ Home Runs
