Key Storylines
- The pitching matchup in this game is going to be very interesting. It is a bullpen day for the Rays and the White Sox have yet to decide on a starting pitcher. Both teams will have to navigate an unusual situation to win this game.
- Tampa has a chance to get back above the .500 mark for the season with a win here. Tampa is 4.5 games back of the final AL Wild Card spot and would need to leapfrog several teams to get there. But they could inch closer with a win here.
Pitching matchup
The Rays are going with an opener out of the bullpen to begin this contest. That opener will be Griffin Jax. Jax is 1-7 this season with a 4.81 ERA. This is an interesting spot for Jax, who has had terrible luck in the loss column this year. But he has a chance to get his team off to a good start in this matchup.
Chicago has not decided on a starting pitcher in this game as of this writing. They could also go with a bullpen day today. Whether they do that or go with a spot starter, they will need to perform at a high level to set a positive tone going into the rest of the game.
Recent team streaks
- The Rays ended a three-game losing streak with Tuesday’s win over the White Sox.
- Chicago has dropped two of its last three games entering Wednesday night.

Final Thoughts
This is an interesting game from a betting standpoint as we don’t know who is pitching for the bulk of this game on either side. I’m going to take the underdog White Sox at home, as I have this game as a toss-up given the pitching situation on both sides.
