Both starters have good numbers against the opposing team but the pens have been horrible in this series. Contreras hasn't faced KC this year but last year he was 2-0 with a 2.10 ERA. Grienke has only given up 5 runs in 4 starts vs. chi sox this season. So its hard to pick a side the total has to be the play.

Unfortunately that stat from last year is completely meaningless. Contreras is a completely different pitcher this year.....and not in a good way. His ERA is over 10 in the month of August.

Little side stat. CWS have only won game 3 of a series 9 out of 36 times this season (25%).

I agree that its meaningless, I was looking for stats vs. KC and thats all I could get.
Well that makes my over play seem a little stronger. THanks Bronco!

A quick glance at Zack Greinke's 1-6 record, 6.70 ERA and 1.49 WHIP in nine career games (seven starts) at U.S. Cellular Field might indicate he should be benched for his Wednesday matchup. Not so. He tossed six shutout innings of three-hit baseball April 8 for his first career win there, and in four starts versus the White Sox this season, he is 2-1 with a 1.61 ERA, 1.07 WHIP and 30 strikeouts in 28 innings in four starts. …

Really don't think there is a good play in this game...

The over looks alright considering Contreras sucks, but for it to happen all the runs will have to be manufactured, connecting hit after hit because Contreras doesn't give up the long ball, and 10-15mph wins directly in from center aren't going to help. Greinke has been throwing great, without run support, losing games with totals of ~6 runs. Tough to take the under here, but it might be the only correct play I see. KC scores a lot of runs on homers, and the Whitesox offense is pretty horrible against Greinke outside of Scotty Pods.

Not a very good game to get your daily itch off on.

Lean is Under 8.5, Maybe CHW +1.5 -135, but I'm probably not betting it. Just my input.

As was already said, this is not a great game to bet on. If I had to guess, I'd say Chicago +1.5 would be the best play.

Here's the Sox's lineup:
Podsednik cf
Beckham 3b
Dye dh
Konerko 1b
