The Detroit Tigers and Chicago White Sox face off on Friday in an MLB showdown at Guaranteed Rate Field. Both of these teams have been very disappointing so far this season.
The Tigers come into this game with a 43-70 record overall and they have lost four games in a row. Over the last three games, the Tigers' pitching actually hasn’t been awful, but the offense has scored only seven runs total and that has led to the defeats. Overall the Tigers are averaging only 3.19 runs per game which is 30th in the league. Guys like Javier Baez haven’t been good enough, and it has led to struggles.
On the other side of this matchup is the Chicago White Sox who sits with a 56-56 record overall and they have lost two games in a row. With every loss, the White Sox are falling more out of the playoff race, and this is a series where they really need a sweep. The White Sox have a talented lineup but just haven’t scored enough runs. The White Sox are averaging 4.26 runs per game. The White Sox have dealt with key injuries this year and right now Tim Anderson is out.
