Agree with everything that John Bollman said as the Pale Hose have no reason to care about this one-game makeup before returning home to close the regular season. Chicago is locked into its playoff seeding. The Tigers have the possible carrot of finishing at .500 or better in the final week.

The White Sox flew into Detroit for a single game today before they fly home tomorrow and they are sitting plenty of regulars including Tim Anderson. They have nothing to play for right now while the Tigers are still at home after yesterday’s series and they have something to play for in getting to that 81st win. Matt Manning has been much better at home and he allowed just 3 ER in 5 IP in his last start which was against the White Sox. Dallas Keuchel is 1-3 with a 7.92 ERA in his last 7 games and he allowed only 2 runs in 5 IP against the Tigers last start but he gave up 11 hits. The Tigers just swept the White Sox at home last week, take the Tigers at home.
