Gavin Floyd flirted with a no hitter in his last start through 7 1/3rd innings before giving up a single to Edgar Renteria. Floyd has pitched well in his career against the Tigers and faced the ice cold Tigers in his first two starts of the season winning both games. The Sox bats have been hot as heading into Monday’s action they led the American League in runs scored per game averaging just under 6 ½. The White Sox bullpen is in the top 5 in the majors allowing an ERA of just 3.13. Guthrie was pounded last season in his only start versus the White Sox allowing 5 earned runs in 3 2/3rd innings. Jeremy Guthrie allows a lot of base runners and pitches out of jams and the White Sox batters have made the most of their scoring opportunities this season. Let’s take the White Sox behind Floyd and the Sox bullpen at –125.
