Astros Favored Over White Sox in AL Wild Card

The Astros, who finished 81-81 but still won the AL West, are favored despite having the postseason's only negative run differential (-32). The White Sox, who had at least 100 losses in each of the last three seasons before this year, last made the playoffs in 2021 and last won a playoff series in 2005.

Series odds include Astros win 2-0 (+235), Astros win 2-1 (+240), and White Sox win either 2-0 or 2-1 (+300). rouesnews.click
