For the rest of the season I will fade the young lefties of the White Sox in Chris Sale and Carlos Quintana it's just too much to ask of them to pitch this much and this is another situation where we have a major advantage with Verlander going for the Tigers who is 11-1 with a 2.32 ERA in his last 12 starts vs. the White Sox. He also does not have to face the big bat of Adam Dunn who will be sitting out and he has dominated tonight's clean up hitter Paul Konerko who is just 8-52 against him. Sale has already started to struggle particularly in his road starts allowing 18 runs over his last 4 starts on the road over 24 innings pitched. Look for him to struggle yet again tonight as he did last time in Detroit giving up 5 ER in 7 innings. Verlander is more experienced to pitch on 4 days rest and he loves pitching in his home ball park where he has a 1.75 ERA this year.
