- Analysis
- The White Sox are coming into this game with a 62-58 record this season and they have not been playing well in their recent games. They have lost 2 of their last 3 as well as 6 of their last 9 games and their pitching has not been great in these. They have allowed 5+ runs in 2 of their last 3 as well as 4 of their last 7 games and they have been much worse on the road this season at 25-34. They are going up against a Tigers team that is 60-61 this season and they have been on fire in their recent games. They have won 4 of their last 5 as well as 5 of their last 7 games and they are right back in the race for the Wild Card, but they have also put themselves in a position to win the division now and this is a big series for that. Their pitching has been great recently as they have allowed 1 run or less in 3 of their last 5 games and their offense has also been much better over the last 2 weeks. Sean Newcomb is starting for the White Sox in this game and he is 1-3 with a 2.66 ERA this season. He has been pitching very well recently, but he has also been pitching out of the bullpen for most of the year and he is not going to go deep into this game. He is going to serve as an opener here and once he leaves the game it will be up to the White Sox bullpen which has been awful this season, allowing a lot of late runs recently as well. Jackson Jobe is starting for the Tigers in this game and he is 1-0 with a 0.00 ERA this season. He has only had 1 start this season, but he pitched 5 scoreless innings in that start and the Tigers bullpen has also been pitching much better recently. Jobe is also 0-0 with a 2.25 ERA against the White Sox in his career, allowing 2 earned runs in 8 innings pitched. The Tigers have been heating up recently and have been much better at home this season. They are going to get up for this series with a chance to take the division lead now and this is a great spot for them at home with good pitching as the White Sox bullpen cannot be trusted to finish this game after Newcomb leaves. The Tigers will win this game at home.
