Struggling White Sox Visit Orioles Monday Night at Camden Yards

Two struggling teams from the American League will meet on Monday night in Maryland when the Orioles play host to the White Sox at Oriole Park at Camden Yards. Chicago has lost four straight while the Orioles have won two in a row, but are not playing to their potential this season. We are going to back the White Sox on the road as they snap their skid.

White Sox ask Sale to end losing streak

With four losses in a row, the White Sox need one of their starting pitchers to step up and take ahold of the reigns. That guy could be Chris Sale on Monday night. The White Sox ace is 6-1 with a miniscule 2.20 ERA. He has allowed hits to just two left-handed batters this season. The lefty should have a strong night in Baltimore against the Orioles, even if Chris Davis is not in the lineup for Baltimore.

Orioles trying hard to make a run in the AL East

In a very interesting AL East, the Orioles find themselves in second place, just 1.5 games out of first behind the Blue Jays. Baltimore could be in first place if it had played as well this year as in year’s past, but that is not the case. Slugger Chris Davis was benched recently after hitting .153 with 41 strikeouts in his last 25 games. He has been replaced in the lineup by Steve Pearce. He will sit Monday against the lefty Sale. 

We find the betting odds for Baltimore and Chicago Monday night at Bovada.lv, where the visiting White Sox are favorites on the road. We are going to bet 15 percent of our bankroll on Sale and the White Sox with the -1.5 (+145) spread as they snap their four-game skid. Place your bets early so you can enjoy this American League contest between two interesting clubs.
