White Sox vs. Tigers Prediction 8/13/18
There is no doubting the Tigers dominance in this series in 2018, but it must be pointed out that four of their victories were by a single run. Tonight, they send out occasional starter Artie Lewicki to make his third start on the season and fourth in his career. He has yet to prove that he can succeed in that roll throwing a combined 13.2 innings allowing 12 runs (10 earned) in the three outings. Lewicki has never lasted past five innings, and it would be a reach to expect him to go deep in this start even against the weak-hitting White Sox. That causes another problem. The Tigers come into this game with a bullpen that was used extensively in the series against the Twins, and while they do have some rested arms, they won't have a full plate of options should he falter early. The White Sox counter with Reynaldo Lopez who has been up and down this season. His main issue has been with giving up the long ball allowing 20 on the season. That said he has pitched well in his last two allowing just one HR over 17 innings pitched helping him record back to back quality starts. Another thing going for Lopez tonight is he’s facing the Tigers who rank dead last in the MLB in home runs and a team he has owned in the past holding the projected starters to a .218 batting average over 55 at bats with ZERO home runs.
