Chicago White Sox Odds

The 2022 White Sox season was rather unimpressive. They concluded the season with an 81-81 record and failed to qualify for the playoffs after making the playoffs in 2020 and 2021. The sad story of the 2022 Sox really started in October, when the Astros humbled them in the postseason with an easy 3-1 victory in the ALDS and leaving no doubt where the Sox stood in the hierarchy of teams.

The Chicago White Sox are expected to head into 2023 with their core still intact and a few fresh talents. Hopefully, they will make an impact this season.

Betting on the Chicago White Sox

MLB Odds: Chicago White Sox vs Detroit Tigers

Below is a selection of odds for the upcoming MLB game: Updated May 28, 2023 - Odds Provided by BetMGM - Subject to Change

White Sox Spread (Run Line)

Betting point spreads are wagers based on the expectation that a team will win or lose by a certain number of points -- or runs in baseball's case. The White Sox went 70-92 against the run line in 2022.

Here’s an example:

• Twins +1.5 (+110)
• White Sox -1.5 (-110)

The Twins are 1.5 run underdogs against the White Sox in this situation. If Chicago wins the game by two or more runs, a $100 wager on the White Sox would come with a payout of $90.91. If Minnesota won the game outright or lost by one run or less, the same $100 wager would net $110 plus the original $100 for $210.

Note: run lines in baseball are typically low considering the game's low-scoring nature, so odds on lines could vary significantly even if the run totals are similar.

White Sox Over/Unders

Over/under, also called point total, is a wager placed on the combined scoring of a single game. Bookmakers come up with a number, and you can either bet the over or — you guessed it — the under. Here’s how it works:

The Yankees play the White Sox, and the over/under is set at 7.5 runs. A wager on the over would require New York and Chicago to score eight total runs or more to win. Betting the under is an expectation that the two teams would score seven or fewer runs. It's also possible for the bet to push, which would happen if the line was a whole number like seven, and the game finished with exactly seven runs scored.

In 2022, the White Sox were near the bottom of the league when it came to exceeding point totals, going 72-79-11 against the over.

White Sox Moneylines

The Sox were an average team to pick when betting the moneyline in 2022 finishing with score of 81-81.

Check out this example on betting the moneyline:

• White Sox -120
• Angels +130

The minus (-) plus (+) signs distinguish the favorite from the underdog, making Chicago the favorite in this scenario. Odds can be understood more clearly if you think about $10 or $100 increments. A wager on the White Sox odds would mean every $120 bet nets $100. And it's the opposite for underdogs: Here, the Angels moneyline was set at +130, meaning a $100 wager would profit $130.

Moneylines are also commonly used when making parlays, multiple bets tied into one. You bet the White Sox moneyline and a -1.5 run line. Chicago would need to win by two runs or more for that bet to be successful. The risk is greater, but so is the reward with increased odds.
