Why Experts Are Betting the Cardinals vs White Sox Game Will Stay Under the Total Runs

The White Sox season is over and we knew it was going to be over from the start. They were one of the worst teams in baseball last season, and they are once again this season. However, they are better than they were last year, and sometimes all that experience of playing – even losing – at least gives some of these players a chance to improve. No one likes losing, but they are developing at the highest level instead of Triple-A. This can obviously impact the confidence of players though, as the growing pains can make them question if they can actually perform at this level. Tonight’s starter, Sean Burke, is someone who is still searching to see if he can make it here. To this point, he looks like a capable enough performer with a 3-7 record, 4.71 ERA, and a 1.44 WHIP. He has made 14 starts this year, and he has allowed five or more earned runs in four of those games. There have been spurts of greatness, he has six quality starts this year. The Cardinals have never faced Burke, and Burke does pitch better at home than on the road with an ERA about two full runs lower.
