The Los Angeles Angels will try to put a weird weekend behind them when they open a four-game set with the visiting Chicago White Sox on Monday night, and Game 1 might be an underrated pitcher’s duel.
The Pale Hose will hand the ball to ace Dylan Cease, who's starting to pitch like the guy who finished second in American League Cy Young voting in 2023. Meanwhile, the Angels counter with Reid Detmers, who might be one of the hottest pitchers in the AL.

Are Cease and the White Sox undervalued? Or is this pitching matchup being overlooked in terms of the total? I break down the MLB odds and bring you my best bet in our free MLB picks and predictions for White Sox vs. Angels.

The Los Angeles Angels are coming off one of the weirdest series in recent memory. The Angels outscored the Colorado Rockies 32-12 over the weekend, which included a 25-1 beatdown that was so bad the Rockies handed over Mike Moustakas in what felt like the spoils of war. But somehow, they lost the series.
One way to move on from that is getting a solid performance from your starting pitching, and the Halos will hope that’s exactly what they get while handing the ball to left-hander Reid Detmers on Monday.
The 23-year-old strikeout artist who's known for his electric fastball has been solid in 2023 with a 4.07 expected ERA and a strikeout rate that ranks in the 80th percentile, and he's arguably going through the best stretch of his young career.
Detmers is pitching to a 0.96 ERA while limiting opponents to a .154 batting average, and he's striking out 11.5 batters per nine innings over 18 2/3 innings of work across his last three starts. And it’s not like he’s been facing off against easy opposition. His last two starts have come against the Dodgers and Rangers.
He'll get a great chance to keep his streak going against a White Sox team that's nowhere near as potent as it used to be when facing southpaws. Chicago ranks 18th in batting average, 19th in OPS, and 21st in wRC+ when digging in against southpaws in 2023. Mix in the 12th-highest strikeout rate, and Detmers is primed for another strong outing.
Countering Detmers is Chicago's young ace Dylan Cease . The 2022 runner-up for the American League Cy Young Award is finding his good form after a rocky start to the season. Cease owns a 4.39 expected ERA, and he's in the 77th percentile in strikeout rate. But he’s been a different pitcher in June. The right-hander is pitching to a 2.38 ERA while limiting opponents to a .185 batting average, and he's striking out 12.7 batters per nine over four starts during the month.
The Angels boast strong numbers against right-handers, but they're a middle-of-the-pack team when it comes to strikeout rate. When Cease faced the Angels in 2022 he shut them out over seven innings on just two hits while striking out eight.
The total of 8.5 is too high for a pitching matchup of this caliber, but I want to take two shaky bullpens out of the equation. I’m looking at the Under on 4.5 over the first five innings instead.  My best bet: Under 4.5 first five innings (-125 at bet365) White Sox vs Angels same-game parlay Under 4.5 first five innings Detmers Over 17.5 outs Detmers Over 6.5 strikeouts Cease Over 6.5 strikeouts It should come as no surprise that this same-game parlay will be pitcher centric. So of course we start it off with the Under 4....
