The Chicago White Sox have a strong offense, seventh in baseball in runs scored with plenty of power (10th in slugging). Lefty John Danks has certainly turned his season around with the team 3-0 his last three starts while allowing one, two, and two runs. Danks picked up his sixth win of the year Tuesday by throwing 6.1 innings and allowing just two runs (one earned) on five hits in Chicago's' 8-2 win over the Giants. In his last five starts (35.2 innings), Danks has gone 3-1 while giving up just six earned runs on 24 hits and nine walks. Minnesota has a good starter going in Phil Hughes, but the team is 1-2 his last three starts, and the White Sox are 5-1 against a starter with a WHIP less than 1.15. The Twins are 5-11 as a home favorite, so grab the underdog visitors in this division clash. Play on the White Sox.
