Chicago vs Colorado Stats

Chicago White Sox

The Chicago White Sox are in the midst of a challenging season as they work towards rebuilding their team. Despite trading away key players for future prospects, the team has struggled to maintain a winning record and currently sits below .500. In their recent series against the Colorado Rockies, the White Sox managed to secure a win in the opener with strong pitching from Adrian Houser and a decisive home run from Edgar Quero. Looking ahead to the series finale, the Rockies will rely on consistent starter Shane Smith to take the mound. Smith has shown promise with an ERA of 3.86 and a WHIP of 1.31, but has struggled in recent starts. The White Sox are also dealing with injuries, including center fielder Luis Roberts Jr. who is listed as day-to-day. With a power ranking of 29, the White Sox are ranked near the bottom in offense and defense, with a record of 29-59 for the season.

Colorado Rockies Analysis

The Colorado Rockies have struggled to put together a competitive roster in recent seasons, resulting in a poor record and last place in their division. Their recent 3-2 loss to the White Sox continued their losing streak, with starter Antonio Senzatela taking the loss. The Rockies will look to turn things around in the series finale, with right-hander Chase Dollander on the mound despite a challenging season record. Key players Jeff Criswell, Case Williams, Kris Bryant, and Ezequiel Tovar are currently out with injuries. The Rockies have a power ranking of 26 and are ranked #27 for offense and #30 for defense, with an overall record of 20-68. Chicago has won one out of their last three matchups against Colorado.

White Sox Have Advantage on Mound in Sunday Matchup Against Rockies

The White Sox have had limited opportunities to be considered favorites this season, especially when playing on the road. However, on Sunday, they are poised to have a significant advantage on the mound. White Sox pitcher Smith has a solid 2-3 record with a 3.60 ERA in eight road games this season, demonstrating his ability to limit opponent scoring and keep the ball in play by allowing only six home runs. In contrast, Rockies' pitcher Dollander has struggled at home with a 9.62 ERA and nine home runs given up in seven games. The White Sox offense is equipped to capitalize on Dollander's difficulties, while Smith is expected to provide a strong performance to keep them in the game. Betting on the White Sox with the money line is recommended in this matchup.
