Total: 8.50 | 104.00 Under
Result: Loss
Hope you weren't fooled by Dylan Covey's hot early start. Covey is a bad pitcher and he's been proving it going 0-4 in his last five starts with a 11.70 ERA and 2.25 WHIP during this time frame. Covey hasn't lasted more than five innings during any of these starts, putting the White Sox's horrendous bullpen into longer action.
Don't expect Covey to suddenly get better against the Mariners, who have the seventh-highest batting average in the majors. Covey has a career ERA of 8.92 on the road.
The White Sox, though, should do damage against Felix Hernandez, making his first start in more than two weeks after being on the DL with back pain. Hernandez is well past his prime. He has allowed more hard hit balls this year than any previous season and has reached the seventh inning only twice in 19 starts.
There's a chance the White Sox get back outfielder Avisail Garcia for this game, which would be a plus for the Over. The Over has cashed in 17 of the White Sox's last 25 games for 68 percent.
