The upstart Chicago White Sox play a series-deciding game against the San Francisco Giants this afternoon at Oracle Park.
Two southpaws, Noah Schultz and Robbie Ray, take the hill.
See why I’m siding with the home team and the Over wth my White Sox vs. Giants predictions and MLB picks for Sunday, May 24.
Who will win White Sox vs Giants today: Giants (-113)
Noah Schultz is a heralded prospect, but he’ll need to clean up a few things to become a reliable and effective big-league hurler.
The massive 6-foot-10 Chicago White Sox starter runs a preposterous 14.2% walk rate, which will come back to bite him once his unsustainably low .233 BABIP and 63.1% left-on-base percentage regulate.
That contrasts with San Francisco Giants starter Robbie Ray, an established vet with a 1.91 ERA across over 28 innings at Oracle Park this season.
That gives SF enough of a starting pitching advantage to take the finale.
COVERS INTEL: Opponents have hit .195 with a 20.4% swinging-strike rate against Ray's slider. He should find success against a White Sox team with a Bottom-10 mark against sliders.
White Sox vs Giants Over/Under pick: Over 7.5 (-117)
Schultz isn’t adept at striking batters out (21.6%) and has a 14th-percentile groundball rate, leading to plenty of loud contact (26th percentile barrel rate) in the air. The White Sox have played to the Over in six of his seven starts.
The White Sox have the fifth-best wRC+ (117) against southpaws, so they may find ways to plate runs against Ray or the moribund bullpen behind him (league-worst 4.88 SIERA in relief this month).
Both lineups have been humming, plating 26 combined runs through the first two games of the series.
