San Francisco is 14-6 in their last 20 games overall and 11-5 in their last 16 road games while the under is 10-2 in their last 12 road games against a team with a losing record. Chicago is 3-7 in their last 10 interleague games and 3-9 in their last 12 home games while the over is 4-0 in their last 4 home games.
Pick
I’m rolling with the White Sox here. If nothing else, Lance Lynn looked good in his debut and had a chance to shake off the rust which isn’t something we can necessarily say for the Giants and Alex Wood here. The Giants have been wildly inconsistent, and I think the White Sox take advantage on Thursday. Give me Chicago and the reasonable price.
