Pathetic White Sox
Chicago has lost 10 of their last 11 games and fallen to last place in the American League Central. In any other division the White Sox might be in serious trouble but in the AL Central they are still in the race. They might not be for long though if they don’t start hitting. Alex Rios and Adam Dunn have averages below the Mendoza line while Gordon Beckham is just barely above .200. The White Sox got a total of five hits in Sunday’s 3-0 loss to Detroit. The White Sox are 8-14 and that is their worst start since 2001. Chicago is now 1-6 on their current 11-game road trip. Chicago has not scored in their last 20 innings and it is tough to make a case for them as you bet on MLB.
