The set-up: Detroit prevailed 4-3 over the White Sox yesterday and I think it'll find a way to get the job done here as well. The visitors go with Jordan Zimmermann, while the home side goes with Lucas Giolito.

The pitchers: Zimmermann is so far 2-0 with a 4.88 ERA. Zimmermann has been cleared to play after three minor league stints to get back into shape. The veteran has made seven starts for the Tigers this year and while his pedestrian ERA is nothing to write home about, he does have a respectable 1.31 WHIP to go along with a decent 32/9 K:W over 31.1 innings of work.

Giolito is so far 4-7 with a 7.09 ERA. Giolito most recently was smashed for four runs off four hits and four walks over five innings in a loss to the Indians on Monday. Amazingly he'd throw more balls (47) than strikes (46) and the sub-par effort would mark the seventh time in just 13 trips to the hill in which he's walked more than he's struck out.

The pick: Unfortunately a date at home is not what the doctor ordered to get Giolito back on track either, as note that he's a terrible 1-4 with an 11.63 ERA in Chicago so far. Zimmermann comes in focused and takes full advantage of this favorable matchup. Play on the Tigers.
