Chicago Bookies Dealing With Two Solid MLB Teams: Cubs, White Sox

In a typical year, Chicago bookies can typically break even in seasons where one of its Major League Baseball franchises – the Cubs and White Sox – flounders even if the other accumulates a winning season. 

2016 looks especially bruising for Chicago bookmakers as both the White Sox and Cubs had two of the best records in the league heading into May.

As always, it is recommended that regional books, exposed by successful local teams, opt to utilize a contract Per Head service.

Pay Per Head companies offer an excellent option for bookies across the globe who wish to outsource and improve their bottom line by offering live in-play betting, futures, player props and a virtual online casino.  These act as the perfect loss leaders.  Sites like Gambling911.com-endorsed PremierPerHead.com start as low as $10 per head (per player).

Heading into June, the White Sox had lost six straight and were a mere three games above the .500 mark at 27-24 though they were just one game below the Kansas City Royals in the AL Central.

The Cubs were still red hot at the start of June with a league leading 34-14 record.

Chris Paddack Player Prop Bets

Paddack recorded 10 strikeouts over seven shutout innings on Monday in a win over the White Sox. Prior to that start, Paddack was obliterated by the Orioles, allowing nine runs on 12 hits in 5 1/3 innings.

Zach Eflin Player Prop Bets

Zach Eflin has great value in fantasy leagues for the April 26 game against the lowly Chicago White Sox.  Betting on Eflin and the Tampa Bay Rays might make sense if not for the -210 price tag.

Trevor Williams Player Prop Bets

The Nats Trevor Williams held the Astros to one run with four strikeouts across six innings in a no-decision on Saturday.  And the betting public was eating him up at a near 80% clip.
