2.12, 1.99, 2.70, 1.64 and 2.30. Those are Tony Gonsolin’s home ERA’s from 2019 to 2023. It’s safe to say we know what kind of result we can expect for the first five or six innings Tuesday at Dodger Stadium.

The same (knowing what to expect) could be said for White Sox starter Lance Lynn, who had an 8.00 ERA in April, 5.97 in May and 9.00 ERA in June. The once dependable starter looks like he may have too many miles on him after twelve and a half seasons. He’s had a few good starts this season, but they came against the Tigers, KC and the Guardians when they were ice cold.

I’m betting the L.A. Dodgers at -220.
