Odds available at draftkings at time of publishing
As the Chicago White Sox host the Boston Red Sox on July 9, all eyes will be on Chase Meidroth. Despite showing flashes of potential, Meidroth faces a challenging matchup that suggests he might struggle to exceed 1.5 total bases. The White Sox’s pitching staff, especially their starters, has been adept at stifling opposing hitters, boasting a combined WHIP that ranks among the league’s best.
Moreover, Meidroth has been inconsistent lately, managing to rack up hits but often falling short of extra-base power against right-handed pitching. Given that the White Sox’s bullpen is formidable late in games, the likelihood of him being neutralized increases. With an implied probability hovering around 68%, it’s reasonable to lean toward the Under 1.5 total bases here. It’s a classic case of opportunity meeting execution, and in this matchup, the odds are against the young slugger.
