Free Betting Pick: Chicago White Sox +160
I am taking a swing with the underdog in this game given how hot the Chicago White Sox have been as of recent (winners in 6 of their last 7). The Washington Nationals are throwing one of their struggling starters in Anibal Sanchez as the veteran is posting a 1-6 record, and that could open the flood gates for the young White Sox. Jose Abreu is having a big season for the Chicago White Sox as he comes into this game with 50 RBIs which ranks inside the top 5 in the MLB, and I expect him to once again give support to the young Dylan Covey. Final Score Prediction, Chicago White Sox win 7-4.
