--The Cincinnati Reds are 1-14 versus the RL against National League teams allowing 3.5 or fewer runs a game on the season, losing by an absurd 4.8 RPG.

THE PICK:

Free MLB Pick – Take Chicago White Sox over Baltimore (8:10 p.m., Friday, June 24)

It is Game 2 of a four-game set between American League clubs Baltimore and Chicago. The scheduled starting pitchers are Kyle Bradish (1-4, 7.38 ERA) for the Orioles and Michael Kopech (2-3, 2.38) for the White Sox. The Birds Bradish has lost his confidence and is really struggling with command, as his 1.77 WHIP points out. The O’s right-hander has conceded 64 hits in only 46 1/3 innings, and right-hand batters are hitting a hard-to-comprehend .402 against him. Kopech is the complete opposite of his mound counterpart, permitting just 31 base knocks in 56 2/3 innings, and his WHIP is under 1.00. The Pale Hose came into this season with high expectations after winning the AL Central with a young talent-laden club. Injuries have curtailed the offense and starting pitching, and there have been plenty of blunders on the field and the bases as well. Though Baltimore has played better than expected, this weekend is the White Sox's chance to start building momentum, and they win Friday night.
