T.M. Selection: Rangers/White Sox OVER.

1) Crochet just has not worked deep into games for two entire months now. He has good overall numbers this season but by exiting each start early for about ten straight starts now it leads to plenty of the White Sox bullpen. Chicago's bullpen has a 5.10 ERA - worst in AL.

2) Rangers bullpen has a 4.38 ERA and is ranked 24th in the majors. Texas might need that bullpen early here too considering that Heaney is 4-13 with a 4.04 ERA this season and he is averaging only 5 innings per start last 9 starts.

3) The White Sox are not known for their hitting but they have at least been respectable at home since the All-Star break including an average of 4 runs scored per game in last 14 on their home field. The Rangers have also averaged 4 runs per game last 15 games. Considering these decent numbers plus the bad bullpens here and likelihood of short starts from the pitchers, I am going over in this one with confidence.

T.M. Prediction: 6-5 Rangers.
