#969 ASA TOP PLAY ON 10* Chicago White Sox -145 over Detroit Tigers, Friday at 7:10 PM ET - The Tigers have played better of late but they have really struggled against the White Sox in recent years and this season has been no different. Also, Detroit is 16-25 in divisional games this season while Chicago is 27-12 in AL Central games. The White Sox enter this game winners of 4 straight and they hand the ball to Lance Lynn. He is 7-3 with a 2.06 ERA and a 1.00 WHIP this season! Lynn is off of a start Saturday that was shortened to 3 innings due to weather but he looked to be back in top form after some hiccups in recent starts. Facing the Tigers should help him maintain that top form as he has held them to just 1 earned run in each of his last 2 meetings with them while totaling 16 strikeouts in 13 innings. The Tigers are 0-4 in the 4 career starts Casey Mize has made against the White Sox. He allowed 3 homers against them when he matched up with Lynn 4 weeks ago and he was fortunate that they were all solo shots as the damage could have been much worse. The Tigers 5.07 bullpen ERA ranks as the worst in the AL while the White Sox 3.98 bullpen ERA ranks 6th. The White Sox are 29-9 last 38 games (including 8-2 this season) against the Tigers and our computer math model reflects a road blowout is likely here. We will grab the road team with the pitching edge on the mound at a reasonable price on the money line in this one and bet Chicago White Sox -145
