Chicago White Sox DFS SPIN
Luis Robert Jr. went 1-3, with a walk in the Crosstown Classic loss to the Cubs. Robert has simply been one of the few lone bright spots in the Southside this season, shining amongst the dysfunction in and out of the clubhouse. The first-time All Star provided a moment Chicago fans won’t forget with his go-ahead homer in the game one victory at Wrigley, and he’s been the source for most of the Sox production this season. Robert has recorded a hit in nine of the previous ten games, while totaling multiple bases in five of those contests. Robert leads CWS in hits (119), home runs (32), and RBI (66), while batting .273.
Colorado Rockies DFS SPIN
Ezequiel Tovar went 3-4 in the divisional loss to the Diamondbacks. Tovar survived the fire sale in Denver, and he’s now flashing glimpses of signs to come. It’s something about the shortstop position in Colorado, and while it’s early, Tovar looks like he could join the likes of Troy Tulowitzki and Trevor Story as the next great Rockies SS. Tovar has collected a hit in eight of the last ten games, while recording multi-hit lines in four of his last seven. Tovar is batting .262, and he now leads Colorado in hits (111), with thirteen homers and 53 RBI.

White Sox vs. Rockies MLB BETTING PREDICTION
The total here at Coors looks massive for this pick ‘em spot, and since Chicago has been wildly inconsistent this season, Colorado may be able to steal this contest. The return of Charlie Blackmon to an altered Rockies lineup was huge in the Arizona series, and he, along with a hot Tovar and Ryan McMahon are enough to stand up to the Sox’ bats. Let’s spot the Rockies the runs for this interleague matchup.
