Before making any White Sox vs. Tigers prediction, our experts are always sure to check out the injury reports for each team. Chicago and Detroit both have players on the injured list this weekend that will have an effect on the result of this game. For the White Sox, their 15-day injured list features four players. Outfielder Eloy Jimenez has a chance to return tomorrow, but he has been out since May 5 for an appendectomy. Second baseman Elvis Andrus, right-handed pitcher Liam Hendriks and right-handed pitcher Mike Clevinger are all on the 15-day injured list as well.
The Tigers have a few players on the 15-day injured list coming into Sunday that you should be aware of as well. Outfielder Kerry Carpenter will not play in Sunday’s game due to a right shoulder sprain, but he is scheduled to be back next week. Right-handed pitchers Spencer Turnbull and Trey Wingenter are on the injured list as well. Our expert White Sox vs. Tigers prediction takes these injuries into account.
The White Sox need a win here as they have fallen 10 games under .500 after they lost to the Tigers on Saturday 7-3. Detroit has improved from last season, but they will need to rattle off some series wins if they want to compete in the American League as a whole.
Chicago has been a disappointment this season after being at the top of the division just a couple years ago. However, they are playing much better as of late after starting the season worse than anyone could have predicted. Our White Sox vs. Tigers prediction is for the White Sox to win the game, which we’ll dive further into below.
We see value on the White Sox in this game because they have the talent to be a good team and absolutely need a win here. They won three straight series before coming to Detroit including a three-game sweep against the Kansas City Royals. The White Sox have the potential to be a much better team than they showed in the beginning stages of the season, and we expect them to get a series split Sunday.
That’s especially the case with Dylan Cease on the mound. He gives the White Sox a great chance to win every time he toes the rubber, even with Detroit starting Eduardo Rodriguez. Cease is coming of a win against another AL Central opponent - the Cleveland Guardians, while E-Rod has lost back-to-back starts, including his most recent to the lowly Royals.
The final and perhaps most important point to make is Cease’s dominance against Detroit. He’s an incredible 10-1 against them with a 1.72 ERA. With that type of track record against a single opponent, ourWhite Sox vs. Tigers prediction is on Chicago’s money line (-112 at FanDuel Sportsbook).
