White Sox vs. Dodgers predictions take center stage Wednesday night as the powerhouse Dodgers look to keep rolling at home against a struggling White Sox squad.
Los Angeles (54-32) dominated Game 1 with a 6-1 win, and there’s no reason to expect anything different in Game 2. The Dodgers are firing on all cylinders and fully intend to stretch their NL West lead even further.
One name to watch? Andy Pages. The rookie outfielder is locked in at the plate, and I’m backing his total bases prop with confidence in my MLB picks for July 2.
White Sox vs Dodgers prediction
My White Sox vs Dodgers best bet: Andy Pages Over 1.5 total bases (+110 at DraftKings)
⚾ Pick Analysis
Wednesday’s pitching situation sees the Chicago White Sox trot out opener Brandon Eisert, who will be followed by Sean Burke for the bulk innings.
Burke is a 6-foot-6 hurler whose 4.22 ERA looks decent on the surface, but the underlying metrics (5.26 xERA and 4.97 xFIP) are troubling.
Among 116 starting pitchers who have thrown at least 60 innings, he ranks 94th in Stuff+ (92). He doesn’t exactly make up for it with his below-average command (99 Location+).
Burke has notable reverse splits (.276/.328/.471 against righties) and has been hittable on the road (5.82 ERA and 5.46 FIP).
Andy Pages is hitting .295 with a 138 wRC+ against RHP, so the platoon split is in his favor.
The 24-year-old was on fire in June (148 wRC+ and .324/.333/.578 slash line). He kept the good vibes going to begin July a day ago, going 2-for-4 with a single, a double, a run scored, and two RBIs.
The books have set Pages’ total bases prop at 1.5 with slight plus money (+110) to the Over, but he’s recorded 2+ total bases in 10 of his last 15 outings.

Clayton Kershaw 5+ strikeouts
Shohei Ohtani 2+ hits runs, & RBI
Andy Pages 2+ total bases
🚀 SGP Analysis
Clayton Kershaw has been dealing lately, allowing four earned runs across his last four starts (23 IP) to lower his ERA to 3.03. The veteran faces a White Sox lineup with a 26.8% K rate and 83 wRC+ against left-handed pitchers, so it forecasts as a successful day at the office.
Shohei Ohtani is averaging 2.2 H+R+RBI across his last 10 games and hits the four-seamer (.323 BA) and curveball (.611 SLG) well, which are Burke’s two most frequently thrown pitches against left-handed batters.
