Rangers pitcher Dane Dunning might have a respectable 3.42 home ERA, but he is consistently in jams. With runners likely to get on base via walks and hits, the White Sox should have a golden opportunity to end their low scoring output. Expect one big inning to chase Dunning early and for the White Sox to get another big win.

It’s go time for the White Sox, who are sitting two games out in the AL Central. They have been stagnant all season, with the bats performing when the pitching wasn’t, and now we have the pitching getting there with the bats quietly waking up. They have won three of their past four and five of seven. Michael Kopech has been a huge part of Chicago's improved play, allowing only six runs over his last four starts (all four stayed under the total). The Rangers had lost 11 in a row behind Dane Dunning until he beat the Angels in his last start. White Sox to win.

Only going to make the one today (and Sundays still off limits barring something really obvious) as my wife surprised me with a camping trip. I mean ... because Florida in August camping is fun. Not hot at all. So I just assume I will be eaten by an alligator, catch malaria or be held hostage for my organs (yet I love Florida). She might have picked right because really weird board Saturday at first glance. Nothing screams hey do it in my opinion. 1-1 on the White Sox-Rangers series picks, but I'll take Michael Kopech over Dane Dunning (a former White Sox). Again, assuming Tony La Russa doesn't accidentally forfeit if awake. Not sure why the Chicago bats have gone so quiet now that everyone is back. They seem due.
