Rangers vs White Sox Betting Pick
This game will be played at Guaranteed Rate Field at 2:10 PM ET on Sunday, June 12, 2022.
Why Bet The White Sox:
✅ Michael Kopech will take the mound for the White Sox and shoot for his second straight win. The 26-year-old flamethrowing righty shut down the mighty LA Dodgers last Tuesday, allowing only one hit and a walk across six scoreless innings while striking out eight. Kopech is 2-2 with a shiny 1.94 ERA, 0.94 WHIP, and 51/24 K/BB ratio in ten starts (51 IP) in 2022.
✅ The Rangers will give Jon Gray a nod, and the 30-year-old righty hasn’t impressed in his first season with Texas. Gray holds a 1-3 record, 5.28 ERA, and 1.30 WHIP in nine starts (46 IP) in 2022. He’s allowed five earned runs in two of his previous three starts.

✅ The White Sox have dominated the Rangers over the last few years. Chicago is 9-2 in its previous 11 meetings with Texas. Also, the Chi Sox have won 17 of their last 20 home encounters with the Rangers.
Texas Rangers
The 26-31 Rangers have dropped seven of their first nine games in June. They’ve scored only 27 runs over those nine contests while slashing .219/.263/.416. The Rangers have hit a whopping 18 home runs to go with just eight doubles so far this month.
Marcus Semien has finally found his groove at the plate. The 31-year-old infielder went yard five times in his last 33 at-bats while tallying a .364 batting average. Corey Seager went yard last Friday, but he’s only 2-for-24 in his previous six games.
Chicago White Sox
The 27-29 Chi Sox have won four of their previous six games, including a couple of road victories over the Tampa Bay Rays. They were sitting at the third spot in the Al Central on Saturday, a couple of games behind Cleveland and five behind Minnesota.
The White Sox are still without shortstop Tim Anderson (groin) and outfielder Eloy Jimenez (hamstring), who should return to the lineup in the second half of June. Third baseman Jake Burger has smacked four homers in his last 41 at-bats, while Jose Abreu is slashing .318/.434/.455 over his last 12 games.
