Chicago White Sox DFS SPIN
Luis Robert Jr. went 2-for-4 with a solo homer on Saturday in the White Sox’ loss to the Rockies. Robert Jr. took Rockies reliever Matt Koch deep in the eighth inning for his 33rd round-tripper of the season. The 26-year-old slugger has gone deep seven times in 28 games since last month’s All-Star break.
Colorado Rockies DFS SPIN
Nolan Jones went 3-for-4 with a pair of RBI and also stole a base on Saturday, leading the Rockies to an 11-5 victory over the White Sox. Jones extended Colorado’s early lead with a two-run single to right field in the second inning. He also doubled, stole a base, and scored a run in the eighth inning as well. The 25-year-old emerging slugger, who has 12 homers and eight steals on the year, has notched five three-hit efforts in just 67 games this season for the Rockies.

White Sox vs. Rockies MLB BETTING PREDICTION
Cease is 1-3 with a 4.91 ERA but a 3.58 FIP over his last five starts, which span 25 2/3 innings. Flexen, meanwhile, is 1-1 with a 7.78 ERA and 7.79 FIP across his last four starts, which span 19 2/3 innings. Although the White Sox have a major advantage in the pitching matchup, their offense has produced a 77 wRC+ over the past 30 days, which is the second-lowest mark in baseball over that span (only the Giants have a lower wRC+ at 64). The Rockies, however, own an 81 wRC+ over the past 30 days, so they haven’t been much better. With Cease on the mound, give me the White Sox. Their offense has got to figure out Flexen, no?
