Here we have a battle between two of the AL Cy Young candidates from last season. Both pitchers are off to strong starts in 2023. However, only one of these teams as a whole is off to a good start. The White Sox are not playing good baseball right now. Chicago has lost 7 straight games, and have scored just 3 runs in their last 36 innings. Some may remember that the White Sox have been one of the best teams at hitting left handed pitching over the last few seasons. However, this season that is not the case. The White Sox are hitting just .214 against lefties. Rays starter Shane McClanahan is a hard throwing lefty who has been dominant this season. McClanahan is 4-0 (Rays are 5-0 in his 5 starts) with an ERA below 2. His strikeout rate per 9 is at a career high (11.5), and his hits allowed per 9 sits at a career best as well (5.6). White Sox starter Dylan Cease had his worst start of the season against the Rays just 5 days ago. The Rays have crushed right handed pitching this season. Tampa ranks top 3 in nearly every key hitting metric against righties. The White Sox bullpen has one of the worst ERA’s in the MLB (6.09). The Rays bullpen has the best ERA (2.49) and WHIP (1.04) in the league. Rays on the moneyline is our bet.
