The New York Yankees look to stay in contention in the ever-tough American League East when they welcome in the Chicago White Sox for a three-game set beginning Tuesday. New York started out this season with a firefly slow start but has picked it up since, as they enter this matchup at 6-4 in their last 10 games.
Chicago, meanwhile, has been extremely disappointing as they’ll head to the Bronx nine games under .500. We broke down the Yankees’ last matchup in Los Angeles with this article here, and now our experts are ready to take their shot at Tuesday’s game. Below, we’ll dive into our White Sox vs. Yankees predictions for June 6 with all odds provided by FanDuel Sportsbook.

It’s smart to review the starting pitching matchups before making any White Sox vs. Yankees predictions at FanDuel Sportsbook, or any MLB picks. Chicago plans to send out veteran right-hander Lucas Giolito. He enters this contest with a 4-4 record, 4.08 ERA and 1.26 WHIP. New York is sending righty Clarke Schmidt to the mound on Tuesday. Schmidt had a nice season last year, but so far this season, he’s just 2-5 with a 5.01 ERA and 1.51 WHIP.
Technically speaking, Giolito has better numbers for the season than Schmidt. But in their most recent outings, it’s clear who the better pitcher has been. In his last three showings, Schmidt has gone at least five innings in each and allowed two runs or less. Giolito is coming off of back-to-back rocky starts, compiling seven runs allowed on 10 hits and nine walks in just 8.2 combined innings of work.
It’s probably fairly evident now which side we’re choosing to rock with from our White Sox vs. Yankees predictions. We’ll take New York on the run line, as the plus money at home represents great value against a lowly Chicago team. After all, the Yankees are coming off a 4-1 win at Los Angeles and sport a 19-13 record at home this season.
On the road side of things, the White Sox haven’t traveled well at all this season (10-20). Not only that, but even if Giolito is drastically better than his past performances, it’s tough to trust this White Sox lineup against just about anybody. They rank 21st or worse in the bigs in .OPS, batting average, home runs and runs per game. No player in their lineup possesses a batting average above .275.
On the other hand, New York’s offense is extremely dangerous, as evidenced by their 4.7 runs per game (ninth in MLB) and 95 home runs as a team (4th). They have arguably the best hitter on the planet in Aaron Judge and a cast of other constant contributors. Giolito has a solid track record and good enough stuff to right the ship eventually, but probably not in this matchup.
Our official play for our White Sox vs. Yankees predictions is Yankees -1.5 (+120 at FanDuel).
