Chicago at Detroit

The Chicago White Sox traded for some pitching to try and stop their slide, but the real story is this offense keeps plummeting, #21 in runs scored, #20 in on-base percentage, and #25 in slugging. White Sox lefty Jose Quintana has a 4.02 ERA in 13 starts against Detroit, including 0-2 with a 5.59 mark in five outings last season. The White Sox are 54-111 away against a team with a winning home record. Detroit has no such offensive troubles, #12 in runs scored, sixth in slugging. The Tigers are on a 9-3 run at home, off a pair of wins the last two days, 10-3 and 7-4. Tigers' starter Justin Verlander has 44 strikeouts his last 37+ innings, and the team is 17-5 when he faces the White Sox. With Chicago 15-37 in this park, grab home field. Play Detroit.
