This week's "Friday Night Baseball" schedule includes an AL Central matchup as the White Sox try to right the ship against the Tigers.

Detroit finds itself in the thick of the division race as the Guardians and White Sox sputter and the Twins hold serve, thanks to an above-average bullpen and a solid start by center fielder Riley Greene. Comerica Park is home to a team that fans are starting to get buzzy about.

The White Sox, meanwhile, are desperately seeking answers. Their starters are in the bottom third of MLB in ERA, their relievers are 29th in bullpen ERA, and their hitters are 26th in OPS. Nothing is going Chicago's way, as reflected in the win column (21-31 record).

But because the AL Central has struggled from top to bottom, a team can quickly become a division favorite if it can get on a run. Every series within the division matters right now.
