Davis Martin, who is 2-4 with a 4.62 ERA, will take the hill Friday for Chicago. The Twins' offense is up to 12th in runs per game, and in their past seven, they averaged six runs per contest.

In his last outing, Martin tossed three innings, surrendering four hits and four earned runs in a loss to the Arizona Diamondbacks. Martin has split time between starting and relieving, and as a result, he won't go too deep into the game. We'll see if he can slow down Minnesota's bats on Friday.

Minnesota sends out righty Sonny Gray, who is currently holding a 7-4 record and 3.04 ERA. He has been very reliable this year, and he'll be pitching against a decent White Sox lineup on Friday. Lately, the right-hander has been extremely sharp, giving up just three earned runs in his last 17 innings.

The Minnesota right-hander got lit up by Chicago last time he faced them, so he'll be looking to be much better this time around. Expect him to ride his previous few outings on Friday to earn the win this time.
