Chicago at Chicago

It is the battle of the Windy City, as cross-town rivals meet in the big city. The Chicago White Sox have begun to dismantle their team. They have been actively selling off players prior to the trade deadline to stock their farm system with young talent. The White Sox have waved the white flag on the 2017 season, and they are an ugly 2-14 in their last 16 games, all since the 4th of July. The Pale Hose have become a doormat, as during the 16 game stretch, they have played a lot of rookies, has seen them not just lose, but lose big by an average of over three runs per contest. The Cubs will be behind Jon Lester for this one, and have advantages all across the board. Back the Chicago Cubs.
