The Chicago White Sox (13-25) and Kansas City Royals (11-27) tangle in the finale of a 4-game series Thursday. The first pitch at Kauffman Stadium is slated for 2:10 p.m. ET. Let’s analyze FanDuel Sportsbook’s lines around the White Sox vs. Royals odds and make our expert MLB picks and predictions for the best bets.
Season series: Royals lead 2-1
Chicago is 2nd last in MLB with 6.11 runs allowed per game. White Sox pitchers allowed 3 home runs in a 9-1 loss to the Royals Wednesday. Chicago has allowed multiple homers in 15 games this season.
The Royals are trying to close out a 10-game homestand with a level 5-5 mark. K.C. is perhaps unlucky to be 4-5 over the first 9 games of the stay at Kauffman Stadium as it has logged a robust .931 OPS over that span.
