Chicago White Sox

As the Chicago White Sox prepare to host the San Francisco Giants on June 27, 2025, they find themselves struggling at the bottom of the standings with a record of 26-55. Meanwhile, the Giants are enjoying a solid season at 44-37, positioning themselves as a competitive force. The White Sox are coming off a disappointing stretch, and the pressure is on as they face a Giants team that has been performing well.

In this Interleague matchup, the White Sox will send Aaron Civale to the mound, who has had a tough year with a 1-4 record and a 5.03 ERA. Civale is currently ranked as the 203rd best starting pitcher in MLB, indicating he has struggled to find his groove this season. He projects to pitch 5.2 innings while allowing an average of 3.0 earned runs, 5.2 hits, and 1.5 walks, which does not bode well against a Giants lineup that has been more productive than the White Sox.

On the other hand, Landen Roupp will take the hill for the Giants. Roupp has been a steady presence with a 5-5 record and a commendable 3.67 ERA. His projections suggest he will pitch around 5.0 innings and allow approximately 2.4 earned runs, making him a favorable matchup against a White Sox offense that ranks 30th in MLB in both batting average and overall offensive output.

While the Giants’ offense ranks 24th in the league, their ability to capitalize on the White Sox’s pitching struggles could be pivotal. With the White Sox’s bullpen ranked 26th and the Giants’ bullpen sitting comfortably at 8th, the latter has a significant edge in late-game scenarios.

As the game approaches, the White Sox are currently an underdog with a moneyline of +145, while the Giants are favored at -165. With the Giants projected to score more runs, this matchup presents an intriguing opportunity for bettors looking to capitalize on the current trends.

San Francisco Giants Insights

• Wilmer Flores – Over/Under Total Bases
  Wilmer Flores has seen a big gain in his exit velocity on flyballs this year; just compare his 89.9-mph average to last year’s 87.6-mph EV.
  Explain: Most home runs are flyballs, and the harder those flyballs are hit, the more often they turn into home runs. This is a strong indicator of power.
• Wilmer Flores – Over/Under Total Bases
  Wilmer Flores pulls many of his flyballs (36.7% — 94th percentile) and has the good fortune of hitting them towards baseball’s 5th-shallowest LF fences in today’s game.
  Explain: This player’s skill set matches up particularly well with the park he’s in today, which may lead to better-than-usual performance.

Chicago White Sox Insights

• Chicago White Sox – 1st Five Innings (F5) Moneyline (+125)
  Aaron Civale is an extreme flyball pitcher (38% FB% according to the leading projection system, THE BAT) and is stuck pitching in the #3 HR venue among all parks today.
  Explain: This pitcher’s skill set does not match up particularly well with the park he’s in today, which may lead to worse-than-usual performance.
• Miguel Vargas – Over/Under 0.5 Total Bases (-185/+140)
  Bats such as Miguel Vargas with extreme flyball tendencies are usually more effective when facing pitchers like Landen Roupp who skew towards the groundball end of the spectrum.
  Explain: This mostly has to do with the way the hitter’s swing plane interacts with the pitch trajectory, and it can create boosted performance across all categories and hidden value few are considering.
• The Chicago White Sox have 3 batters in their projected offense today with a high (i.e. over 27%) underlying K% (via the leading projection system, THE BAT X) (Kyle Teel, Luis Robert Jr., Ryan Noda).
  Explain: Teams that have multiple high-strikeout hitters will make it much easier for the opposing pitcher to record strikeouts
