The New York Yankees will look to extend their winning streak to six games when they take on the Chicago White Sox at Rate Field tonight.

New York has outscored its opposition 43-14 during its run, and I’m expecting the visitors to easily cover the spread in my Yankees vs. White Sox predictions.

Yankees vs White Sox prediction

Yankees vs White Sox best bet: Yankees -1.5 (-141)

Cody Bellinger, Trent Grisham, and Jazz Chisholm Jr. each went yard on Thursday to help the New York Yankees roll to a 10-4 win in the series opener against the Chicago White Sox.

New York’s offense has come alive in August, leading MLB in runs scored (90), home runs (37), and slugging percentage (.570) over the past 15 days. That offensive surge has helped the Yankees go 10-3 over their last 13 outings while covering the spread in nine of those contests.

Carlos Rodon also comes into the contest on a three-game win streak for the Yankees and has not suffered a loss since July 21 — a span of six straight starts. Meanwhile, White Sox pitcher Yoendrys Gomez is slated to make just his fourth career MLB start tonight, carrying a bloated 4.73 ERA in his first full season.

The Pinstripes should cruise to another comfortable win in Chicago.

Yankees vs White Sox same-game parlay (SGP)

While Aaron Judge continues to slump with a .208 batting average over the last week, New York’s recent run has been spearheaded by Bellinger and Grisham.

The pair have combined for 39 total bases over that span, with Bellinger notching 2+ total bases in four straight games — including 13 total bases through his last two contests — and Grisham hitting that number in four of his last five.
