How Many Bases Will Andrew Vaughn Get?
While Andrew Vaughn has been one of the White Sox’s best hitters this season, the Chicago outfielder and first baseman will have a tough series starting Monday against the Houston Astros’ pitching.
Against current Astros pitchers, Vaughn is batting just .117 (32-6) lifetime, while against Justin Verlander, whom he faces Tuesday, he has a single in three at-bats.
Prior to Monday’s game, Vaughn had four consecutive games with at least one hit, hitting home runs in two of them.
Pick: 1.

JefeBet App: Liga MX Matchday 9 – Atlas vs. Juárez
How Many Goals Will Be Scored in the Game?
Matchday 9 of the Liga MX begins this Tuesday with the match between Atlas and Juárez: both teams have had a slow start, but are still in contention for a place in the round of 16.
Atlas is in 12th place in the standings with eight points after scoring 10 goals and conceding 12 goals after eight games. In the meantime, Juárez is in 16th place with seven points, thanks to an airtight defense that conceded only seven goals, but has not been backed up offensively with only six goals.
In the last three meetings between the two teams, at least two goals have been scored, while six of Atlas’ eight games in the Apertura have seen at least a pair of goals on the scoreboard.
Pick: 2.

In a match to be played at the Banc of California Stadium, the home team will host D.C. United, the worst team in the current MLS season.

For its part, D.C. United is last in the Eastern Conference, and in the overall championship table, with 22 points. They have three games without a win and have only seven points in 11 away games.
