This is a 10* FIRST HALF GAME OF THE YEAR on the Chicago White Sox (2:10 EST).
James Shields is laboring through his worst campaign of his career. Shields (4-9, 5.67 ERA) has slowly started to turn the corner over his last two outings and we think the time is right to pull the trigger and capatalize on this under-achieving hurler. Shields would most recently hold the Yanks to two runs off five hits over six innings. Both runs were given up on a long-ball to Chase Headly, but that would be the only blemish on the day. Shields has now won two of his last three starts behind a very respectable 3.06 ERA and 11 K's in 17.2 innings of work. The visitors counter with Mike Foltynewicz (2-3, 4.29) who was rocked for five runs off eight hits over 5.2 innings in a setback to the light-hitting Phillies on Tuesday. It was the second time in his three-year career that he's given up four home runs in a single game. Note that he's a poor 1-3 with an atrocious 6.20 ERA on the road this season. In no way will we try to convince you that Shields is "back," clearly the veteran has a long way to go before he can start to convince people of that. However, we feel this is a great "situational" play as Shields has indeed shown signs of his old form. And that's bad news for Foltynewicz and the Braves' anemic lineup today. Lay the price with confidence on CHICAGO.
