Series preview: Guardians at White Sox

When all the numbers shake out, the Chicago White Sox are the definition of average. They sit somewhere in the middle of every major pitching and hitting stat, they’re barely over .500, and they have a run differential of zero. The team that was supposed to run away with the AL Central found themselves spinning their tires for much of the year, and now they’re chasing the Guardians down the stretch.

With 15 games left for both these teams, this three-game set between the Central’s last two hopefuls has a lot on the line. It won’t decide anything outright — both teams could be swept and still have a shot at making the postseason — but the Guardians could make their last week of the season a lot less tense if they come away with a series win.
