WHITE SOX ?210:
You?ll rarely see me playing a favorite as heavy as this one, but I just cannot see the ChiSox losing this one considering the situations.
Detroit might have the worst offense in the history baseball in my opinion. They were pathetic last season and have gotten even worse. So far this season, Detroit has scored a total of 4 runs in 5 games!! Heck, the White Sox almost had double that in yesterday?s game alone!
Josh Stewart gets the start for the White Sox and I think he?ll be pretty good in this one?at least good enough to get the win. Being a rookie, it?s important to have the support of the crowd and pitching at home will be a big plus here.
Stewart had a brilliant spring, going 2-0 with a 2.05 ERA and is a type of pitcher that will work the corners and is good at that (from what the scouting reports say). Today he gets Home Plate Umpire Brian Onora calling the balls and strikes and in case you didn?t know, Onora has one of the largest strikezones in the Major Leagues, so getting those corners calls will be a huge plus for Stewart in this one.
Gary Knotts gets the start for the Tigers and in my opinion this guy isn?t even near ready for the Majors. Actually, he's only had 1 career start and his first start this year is of course on the road which is a big negative for him plus if you take a look at his spring numbers, you?ll see they are flat out horrible. This spring he?s pitched 15 total innings and had an ERA of 9.00 plus walked 12 in those 15 innings while only striking out 6. The Home Ump, Onora does have a large K zone, but if you?re wild it, these Umps won?t help you too much?trust me! This White Sox team will be licking their chops today. This game won?t even be close!
Good luck :thumb:
