MLB Odds, Free Pick Chicago White Sox at Chicago Cubs

http://img.bleacherreport.net/img/article/media_slots/photos/000/409/095/127410724_crop_exact.jpg?w=650&h=440&q=85

The Windy City will see both MLB teams take to the field today as the Chicago White Sox take on the Chicago Cubs. The game is scheduled for a 2:20 p.m. start time and currently the odds for the game have the Cubs as a small favorite.

Yesterday's game to continue this series was supposed to be played last night but it was rained out. But today it appears the game will get started and hopefully completed if the weather is going to cooperate. The city of Chicago would probably be pleased.

Cubs starter Scott Feldman (4-4, 2.80) takes the ball today to take on the White Sox. After losing his first three starts, the right-hander went 4-0 with a 1.27 ERA over his next five starts before getting beat up on Friday night. Yet, Feldman has thrown very well at home this year — he has a 1.33 ERA at home this season, striking out 24 in 27 innings over four starts.

The Cubs have lost 19 of their last 28 against the White Sox (24-25) and will give it another try at Wrigley Field, where the White Sox swept them last season. The Cubs have lost nine of Feldman's 13 career starts against the White Sox. Current White Sox hitters have a combined average of .282 against Feldman, who has given up two home runs each to Paul Konerko and Alex Rios.

The White Sox will give the ball to John Danks (0-0, 4.50) who last picked up a win at Wrigley Field a year ago before being shut down with an arm injury last year. In his first start this season last week, Danks threw 76 pitches and looked pretty solid. In 66 plate appearances against Danks, Cubs hitters have an average of .318 but nobody has gone deep against him.

But if the White Sox can win today, they're going to have to hit. They're one of the worst teams in the American League with a .239 batting average and they're averaging just 3.0 runs over their last eight games overall.

Free Pick: Cubs 4, White Sox 3
