Game Totals Pick
We’ve got an AL Central matchup this evening featuring the struggling Chicago White Sox and the Cleveland Guardians. It will be Michael Kopech getting the start for Chicago and Noah Syndergaard on the bump for Cleveland making his 2nd start for the team since being acquired from the Dodgers.
Syndegaard has had his fair share of struggles this season posting a 6.68 ERA and 1.38 WHIP to go along with a career-low strikeout rate (5.34 K/9). He falls in the 2nd percentile in xBA, 5th percentile in Whiff% and 4th percentile in xSLG. In other words, Syndergaard has been hit around more than a punching bag this year. Chicago’s Kopech on the other hand hasn’t been phenomenal either, but he certainly looks better on paper. Kopech’s 4.49 ERA and 1.44 WHIP aren’t atrocious, but pairing that with a 5.63 xERA and 6.30 FIP and the numbers call for some regression from the right-hander. He’s surrendered 7 earned runs in his last 10 innings pitched and posted a 6.61 ERA in the month of July.
The Guardians offense isn’t outstanding, but they’ve been much better in the 2nd half of the season. Improving their wRC+ by 11% from the first half of the season to now, I have faith the home team can put up some runs against an unreliable arm on the mound. Even if they get off to a slow start, the White Sox bullpen ranks 25th in the league with a 4.60 ERA and is bound to give up at least a run or two. With all things considered, I’m taking the over 9 runs in this one.
Over 9 (-115) available at time of publishing. Playable at that number.
