Chicago is flying high during a hot start. But it's been against weak competition and this is their fourth straight road contest. The White Sox offense struggled last year and really has not been that impressive in 2016 at #17 in runs scored, #20 in on base percentage, #22 in slugging. Chicago goes with lefty Chris Sale, who has struggled in his career against the Rays, going 2-4 with a 4.62 ERA in eight appearances (six starts). Tampa Bay is not an easy park to pitch in and the Rays are 23-9 at home against a team with a road winning percentage of greater than .600. Tampa Bay has a strong arm going in Jake Odorizzi (3.86 ERA), fanning 14 with just two walks in his first two starts. The Rays won five of six games against the White Sox last season, including a three-game sweep at home. Back Tampa Bay.
