Chisox starter Quintana was rocked for 9 runs in 4 innings early this season against Detroit, but he reeled off 6 straight Q starts previous to that start against them so it’s anyone’s guess which pitcher we will see today. One stat that stands out though is that his worst performance of the season was in a day game against the Tigers. Detroit’s starter Kyle Lobstein has be good at times this season, but has not impressed on the road with a 5.11 ERA in two starts.
