    There's been a lot of talk today on the White Sox-Yankees game... Specially in the best bets thread.
    I think its tough to pick.
    Razz and others think the Yankees should be a big dog... I dont know about that.
    Im personally gonna pass on the game but if I had to put some money in it I'd definitely take New York...
    Garcia has been iffy and Yang has been good and NYY offense is on a roll.

    Here's why I love the White Sox.

    CWS best team in baseball against RHSP (6.0 rpg, +$1170).
    NYY not so great against RHSP (5.3 rpg, -$740)
    CWS 23-12 against RHSP at home
    NYY 19-16 against RHSP on the road
    Wang overpriced after dominating mostly weak teams at home, where his ERA is around 2.00. On the road, his ERA is 5.08.
    Garcia's home ERA is 4.30, not great, but he has also had a pretty good amount of success against the Yankees in the past.
    Yankees have won 10 of 12, but that was against Baltimore, Tampa, Toronto, and Texas.
    White Sox have been playing the Angels and Twins, two of the hottest teams in baseball, so their record in recent weeks has dipped.
    Love playing Chicago here after they were swept in New York last month.

    Not a big dog, but I'd take the White Sox -110.

    Yep, great game. Glad to come out on top - never really should have been close, but I'll take it.
