Blue Jays vs. White Sox Prediction and Odds for June 20 (José Berríos May Have Found His Form)

Two former aces and Cy Young candidates face off in Chicago on Monday night. José Berríos goes for Toronto and Lance Lynn takes the mound for Chicago. Neither has lived up to their all-star caliber pedigree this season. Berríos carries in a 4.65 ERA while Lynn, coming off his first start of the season, brings in a 6.23 ERA. 

Toronto sits in second place in the AL East, finally starting to fulfill their preseason billing as a title favorite, but Chicago has not been able to repeat their success from a year ago. The White Sox sit in third in the AL Central.

Blue Jays vs. White Sox Prediction and Pick

Lance Lynn did not pitch well in his season debut last Monday against Detroit. He gave up three runs over 4.1 innings, but that was the least of the news that came out of that start. Lynn was seen in a verbal dispute with coach Joe McEwing in the dugout.

The tension is clearly building in Chicago after the team is still under .500 at 31-33. Lynn’s return would hopefully solve some issues for the Sox, but his first start did not inspire much confidence, and I wouldn’t be surprised if White Sox fans are just as frustrated as Lynn was. 

On the other side, Berríos is trending in the right direction. In three starts in June he has gone 7.0, 8.0, and 7.0 innings and the three runs he allowed last time out were the most of any start this month. That makes three straight quality starts, and the bats in Toronto has giben him enough support as he has won his last four starts. 

Pick: Blue Jays -119
