KEY GAME INFORMATION
CHI WHITE SOX: 2017: 67-95, fourth place.
MANAGER: Rick Renteria (second season).
ADDITIONS: RHP Miguel Gonzalez, C Welington Castillo.
SUBTRACTIONS: LHP Derek Holland, RHP Mike Pelfrey, RHP Al Alburquerque, RHP Jake Petricka, C Geovany Soto, OF-2B Alen Hanson, RHP Zach Putnam.
OUTLOOK: For a team with five straight losing seasons and a record that ranked among baseball's worst last year, the White Sox are generating plenty of buzz. That's because they're loaded with promising young players after going all-in on a rebuild prior to last season. The moves have sparked a belief that better days are ahead. Moncada and hard-throwing pitchers Giolito and Lopez showed promise in the majors last season. Right-hander Michael Kopech, outfielder Eloy Jimenez and outfielder Luis Robert are elite prospects on their way in the minors. Garcia, coming off a breakout season, is looking to prove he's not a one-hit wonder. Anderson hopes to bounce back from a trying season in which a close friend was shot to death. Abreu is back after the slugger was viewed as a potential trade candidate this winter. Left-hander Carlos Rodon is expected to be out until at least June following shoulder surgery last September. It's not clear when he'll be ready. Rodon also was sidelined at the start a year ago because of shoulder and biceps problems. The big question is whether he'll ever develop into the pitcher the White Sox envisioned when they drafted him with the No. 3 overall pick in 2014.
DETROIT: 2017: 64-98, fifth place.
MANAGER: Ron Gardenhire (first season).
ADDITIONS: OF Leonys Martin, RHP Mike Fiers, LHP Francisco Liriano, OF Victor Reyes.
SUBTRACTIONS: Manager Brad Ausmus, 2B Ian Kinsler, RHP Anibal Sanchez, INF Andrew Romine, RHP Bruce Rondon.
OUTLOOK: The Tigers traded Verlander, Justin Upton and J.D. Martinez last season, then dealt away Kinsler during the offseason. There could be more big moves on the horizon ' Fulmer, Iglesias and Castellanos should all have some trade value, but each of them is young enough that he could be useful to the Tigers when they become competitive again. That's especially true of Fulmer, the 2016 AL Rookie of the Year. Barring a huge surprise in terms of on-field results, the biggest suspense this season might revolve around how general
MANAGER Al Avila approaches the next few steps in the rebuild.
PREVIEW
White Sox ace Rodon faces Tigers
 

Carlos Rodon has emerged as an ace for the Chicago White Sox. The American League Central Division rival Detroit Tigers will get a closeup look at the 25-year-old left-hander Wednesday afternoon.

Rodon, who has posted a major-league best 1.27 ERA since the beginning of last month, will start the finale of a three-game series at Comerica Park in Detroit.

Rodon's 3-3 overall record is deceptive as he could have easily collected wins in each of his last six starts with better run support. He hasn't lost since June 30 but has just two wins since.

Rodon has tossed at least six innings each time during that stretch while allowing two or fewer runs in all of them. He hasn't given up an earned run in two August outings, including an eight-inning gem against Cleveland on Friday. The White Sox won that game 1-0, but Rodon did not get a decision.

"He's throwing the ball really, really well," White Sox manager Rick Renteria said during the postgame press conference. "His off-speed, his breaking balls are working well. That front-door action also. ... Very focused. He's having fun, he's relaxed."

Rodon has mostly relied on his fastball and slider this summer. He threw 38 sliders against the Indians.

His season debut was delayed until June after undergoing arthroscopic shoulder surgery last September. While some other touted White Sox prospects have struggled at the major-league level, Rodon looks like the real deal. He is the biggest bright spot on an otherwise dreary season for the White Sox.

"Just the confidence is there. Just feel like you belong and you get your shoulder fixed, and you know there's no issue, nothing wrong," Rodon told MLB.com. "There's no doubt in your mind when you go out and I step on the mound that I'm healthy and I'm coming to compete. It's a big thing for anyone in this game to have that confidence when you step on the field, to say I can play with you guys."

Rodon has a 2.61 ERA for the season and has limited opponents to a .187 average. He is 0-2 with a 7.31 ERA in three career starts against Detroit, but has not faced the Tigers this season.

He'll be opposed by right-hander Jordan Zimmermann (5-4, 3.98 ERA), who broke a personal four-game skid in his last start.

Zimmermann didn't give up an earned run while lasting 6 1/3 innings against Minnesota on Friday, a game the Tigers won 5-3, earning a win for Zimmermann.

Zimmermann has not fared well in two starts against the White Sox this season, surrendering nine earned runs in 9 1/3 innings, though he wound up with no-decisions.

He's made 10 career starts against Chicago, posting a 5-2 record and 5.70 ERA.

The White Sox lost nine of the first 10 games of the season series with Detroit prior to Chicago's 6-3 victory on Tuesday night. The win was highlighted by Ryan LaMarre's first major-league home run.

Detroit manager Ron Gardenhire was irritated by what he felt was a lack of fundamentals during the early going. A botched rundown allowed a run to score in the first inning.

"We weren't pretty," he said. "We just had one of those Bad News Bears days."

Tigers shortstop Jose Iglesias suffered a deep thumb bruise and didn't play the last inning. He is questionable to play Wednesday.
