Shane’s Free Pick
Blackburn has been good this season for the A’s and this is a great spot to take them. The White Sox’s offense is ranked 23rd in the league and they are going to really struggle to get any type of offense going here. The White Sox are going to only score two or three runs, and the A’s are going to get the job done. Back Oakland on the money line to cash. There is a ton of value here, and it's one of my favorite plays on the board.
