The Chicago White Sox lost 99 games last season while the Twins lost 96. Both teams are likely to improve upon those marks, but there is no doubt that the White Sox are the more improved team, and getting this one at home at slightly better than even odds puts them on the right side of this one. Chicago recovered from allowing a 5 run inning last night to get the win. The Twins send Yohan Pino to the mound, and he has not fared well on the road where his ERA stands at 6.75. The Twins own a 1-7 record in their last eight vs. a losing team, and have not fared well on the road as they are 7-15 in their last 22. The Twins are just 2-5 here in their last seven played. Back the White Sox.
