The White Sox put an end to a seven-game losing streak with back-to-back wins over the Mets coming into Friday while the Tigers look have lost five of their last six. The Tigers get Jordan Zimmerman back on the mound tonight, but he has been struggling prior to suffering a minor injury. On the flip side, Rodon started slow, but has been very solid in his last three starts. Look for Chicago to find a way to win the series opener.
