Now, he gets to face an Orioles team that has the seventh-highest strikeout rate this season at 26.5%.<\/p>\n<p>Orioles vs. White Sox Prediction and Pick<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-19\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"8z\">In today&#8217;s edition of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.si.com\/betting\/betting-100-every-day-for-a-year-day-94-picks-for-reds-marlins-capitals-maple-leafs-and-more\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Betting $100 Every Day for a Year<\/a>, I broke down why I&#8217;m backing the White Sox as home underdogs this afternoon:<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-20\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"92\">I don&#8217;t think the White Sox deserve to be this big of a home underdog this afternoon. Sean Burke gets the start for the White Sox, and I&#8217;m high on the young pitcher. He&#8217;s coming off a performance where he allowed just one earned run while striking out seven batters across six innings against the Toronto Blue Jays.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-21\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"95\">Kyle Bradish for the Orioles has gotten off to a rough start this season. He is 0-2 with a 6.23 ERA. That&#8217;s not good enough for me to think Baltimore is a deserving road favorite.<\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-22\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"98\">Pick: White Sox +135 <a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/4hmNc2h\" rel=\"nofollow sponsored noopener\" target=\"_blank\">via BetMGM<\/a><\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-24\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"9d\">Follow Iain on\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/IainMacBets\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">X<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/iainmacbets\/?hl=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Instagram<\/a><\/p>\n<p id=\"inline-text-25\" class=\"my-[18px] [&amp;_a]:text-primary my-f-1.5\" q:key=\"0\" q:id=\"9g\">Use <a href=\"https:\/\/www.si.com\/betting\/sportsbook-promos\/betmgm-bonus-code\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">BetMGM promo code<\/a> \u2018SI1500\u2019 to get up to<a href=\"https:\/\/bit.ly\/4hmNc2h\" rel=\"nofollow sponsored noopener\" target=\"_blank\"> $1,500 back in bonus bets <\/a>when you register and place your first wager with BetMGM Sportsbook.
