Spencer Strider has been hit hard in his last two starts, allowing 13 runs and 19 hits combined across just 8 2/3 IP vs. the Mets and Brewers. Yet this is more about trying to ride the Braves, who have finally caught an updraft late in the season and enter tonight having won five straight and eight of nine after sweeping out the Guardians in Cleveland over the weekend. It's the Chisox who look the go-against right now, the offense having stalled again, the road losing streak now seven after getting swept on the weekend in Kansas City. Making just his second start, Yoendrys Gomez looks a desperate roll of the dice on the mound for the Pale Hose. Play Braves on the Run Line.
The Braves' bats are waking up -- Michael Harris II leading the way -- and they've won eight of nine. The White Sox sputter in having lost 11 of 13 and look pitiful again. Spencer Strider is on the mound for the Braves. All roads lead to a blowout.
