Premium Pick

The White Sox are 9-24 in their last 33 road games. Chicago's offense is terrible at #24 in runs, and #27 in on-base percentage. Starter Chris Sale may be an ace, but the team is 0-3 his last three starts allowing 17 hits and eight walks in 19 innings, along with 10 runs -- all coinciding around his outburst and suspension for destroying the team's throwback jerseys. One team he's struggled against this season is Detroit, with a 4.73 ERA in 13+ innings with the Tigers hitting .288 off of him. Detroit's offense is sixth in baseball in runs scored, eighth in on-base percentage and fifth in slugging. Detroit has scored at least 10 runs in three of its last four games and 12 times this season, second to Boston (13) in the American League. Tigers' righty Michael Fulmer (9-2, 2.50 ERA) has been outstanding with the team 14-2 his last 16 starts. The White Sox are just 18-37 against a right-handed starter. With Detroit on a 25-10 run at home and Chicago 15-39 in this park, grab home field and play Detroit.
