South Side Hit Men Posted July 19, 2023 Share Posted July 19, 2023 (edited) The Sox have their best starter on the mound since he was acquired, and hopefully they can win a few games here for the fans still watching. Facing Verlander, so that may be an impediment to victory. He is 22-14 with a 3.72 ERA lifetime against the Chicago White Sox. New York is a -204 favorite, the White Sox a +185 Underdog and a -110 pick'em via the + 1 1/2 run line.

The Kids Can Play Posted July 19, 2023 Share Posted July 19, 2023 Ok let's see, Verlander is an 40 year old smart veteran pitcher. He knows he can't rely on his fastball domination like many years ago, but he sure can rely on very active sliders and curve balls to mix in, what is still a decent 4-seam fastball. That seems like a smart game plan against the Sox, knowing they sometimes can be a tad impatient and free swingers. I hate to say this, but this could be another huge day for Sox batters getting K's. Let's hope they are smart and patient tonight and prove me wrong. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChiSox59 Posted July 19, 2023 Author Share Posted July 19, 2023 Sox seem decently likely to face Keuchel this weekend. That’ll be interesting. He has an opt out on Friday and has pitched well in AAA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScootsMcGoots Posted July 19, 2023 Share Posted July 19, 2023 Smells like a no-hitter tonight. I'll let all you extremely brainy white sox fans decide gor yourselves Which team I think will be no-hit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whitesoxfan99 Posted July 19, 2023 Share Posted July 19, 2023 If the Sox approach is going to be to swing at literally every pitch it probably isn’t going to be a great night 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Under the old draft system where the Sox could pick top 5 multiple seasons in a row I'd have him on the block but in the current system I doubt the Sox are trading their players with anything more than a year left on their deal.
