Cleveland Guardians at Chicago White Sox Betting Preview

The Cleveland Guardians will travel to Chicago once again on Wednesday as they take on the Chicago White Sox for their second game of a three-game series. The White Sox and Guardians have both struggled to bit to start the season, sitting under .500.

The Guardians come into this one at 19-22, while the White Sox enter this one at 15-28. With an 8-3 win in game one, the White Sox should feel somewhat confident about what they’re going to be able to do against the Guardians. They haven’t necessarily put together too many games this year where they look to be one of the better teams in baseball, but perhaps this was the game that could get them going.

The sportsbooks believe that the White Sox have the advantage here as they come in at -125 on the moneyline.

Can the Guardians Bounce Back?

When looking at what the Cleveland Guardians have done this season, it’s easy to see why people do believe that this team should be much better. They sit at 19-22, which is one of their most disappointing starts in recent memory.

There are a few reasons why they’ve struggled this season, but their offense seems to be hitting a low point at the moment. In their past few games, they’ve had multiple games scoring less than two runs and that’s typically going to be a call for concern in their division. Their pitching has been somewhat decent to start the season, but that’s also going to need to be better if they want to be the team that they’re hoping to be this year.

Despite the slow start, the Guardians are still in a fine position. They’re only four games behind the first-place Minnesota Twins, and the American League Central looks to be one of the worst divisions in baseball once again. If they can continue finding ways to win games against teams that are also struggling, like the White Sox, they should have a shot to win the division when it matters most.

What’s Going On in Chicago?

The Chicago White Sox have easily been the most disappointing team in baseball this season. Coming into the year, many believed that they had a chance of making a deep playoff run, and that simply doesn’t look like it’s going to be the case anytime soon.

Chicago is struggling on both sides of the ball, and injuries are playing a factor in that as well. However, fans are starting to get upset with what’s going on down in Chicago, and it’s something to look out for in these games. Their fans have turned on them a bit, and players seem to be at getting frustrated with what’s going on.

Although they did win at game one, it’s tough to imagine that they’re going to win two games in a row, even if they have the better arm on the mound.
