Final Betting Pick

The Astros are favored with a MoneyLine of -257, and for good reason. They have a better overall record and perform well at home with an 11-7 record. Hunter Brown’s impressive stats, including a 1.22 ERA and a WHIP of .84, suggest he can control the game and limit the White Sox’s scoring opportunities.

The under 8.0 pick is supported by both teams’ average hitting performances. The Astros have a team batting average of .238, while the White Sox are at .216. With Brown’s strong pitching and the White Sox’s struggles on the road, a lower-scoring game is likely. Both teams’ recent games also show limited scoring, making the under a reasonable choice.
