KEY GAME INFORMATION
KANSAS CITY: 2016: 81-81, third place.
Manager: Ned Yost (eighth season). He's Here: OF Jorge Soler, RHP Jason Hammel, RHP Nathan Karns, DH Brandon Moss, LHP Travis Wood. He's Outta Here: RHP Wade Davis, DH Kendrys Morales, OF Jarrod Dyson, RHP Luke Hochevar, RHP Edinson Volquez.
Projected lineup: SS Alcides Escobar (.261, 7 HRs, 55 RBIs), LF Alex Gordon (.220, 17, 40), CF Lorenzo Cain (.287, 9, 56), 1B Eric Hosmer (.266, 25, 104), DH Brandon Moss (.255, 28, 67), RF Jorge Soler (.238, 12, 31 with Cubs; likely to start season on DL with strained oblique), 3B Mike Moustakas (.240, 7, 13), C Salvador Perez (.247, 22, 64), Raul Mondesi (.185, 2, 13).
Rotation: LH Danny Duffy (12-3, 3.51 ERA, 188 Ks), RH Ian Kennedy (11-11, 3.68, 184 Ks), RH Jason Hammel (11-11, 3.83 with Cubs), LH Jason Vargas (0-0, 2.25 in 3 starts after returning from Tommy John surgery), RH Nathan Karns (6-2, 5.15 with Mariners).
Key relievers: RH Kelvin Herrera (2-6, 2.75, 12 saves), RH Joakim Soria (5-8, 4.05), LH Matt Strahm (2-2, 1.23), LH Travis Wood (4-0, 2.95), LH Scott Alexander (0-0, 3.32), RH Chris Young (3-9, 6.19). Hot Spot: Starting Rotation. Duffy showed signs of blossoming into an ace late last year, but is yet to put it all together for a full season. Hammel was signed after the tragic death of RHP Yordano Ventura in a car accident in the Dominican Republic. Vargas barely pitched last season after coming back from elbow surgery. Karns has intriguing potential, but might end up in the bullpen unless he lives up to it quickly.
Outlook: Royals GM Dayton Moore thinks his starting rotation is the best it has been during his tenure, even if just about every spot is tenuous. He also thinks Kansas City has more power at the plate this year thanks to Moustakas' return from a torn ACL and the signing of Moss. Paulo Orlando (.302, 5, 43, 14 SBs) will replace Soler in right field at the start of the season. But there are plenty of question marks up and down the lineup, not to mention on the pitching staff, and several things must break right for Kansas City to make noise in the AL Central and take a run at its third World Series appearance in four years.
CHI WHITE SOX: 2016: 78-84, fourth place.
Manager: Rick Renteria (first season). He's Here: RHP Lucas Giolito, INF Yoan Moncada, LHP Derek Holland, RHP Reynaldo Lopez, C Geovany Soto, OF Peter Bourjos. He's Outta Here: Manager Robin Ventura, LHP Chris Sale, OF Adam Eaton, OF Austin Jackson, DH Justin Morneau, C Alex Avila, RHP Matt Albers.
Projected lineup: CF Leury Garcia (.229, 1, 5 in 18 games, 48 ABs; .313, 6, 35, 18 SBs in 84 games at Triple-A Charlotte) or Jacob May (.266, 1, 24, 19 SBs in 83 games at Triple-A Charlotte), SS Tim Anderson (.283, 9, 30), LF Melky Cabrera (.296, 14, 86), 1B Jose Abreu (.293, 25, 100), 3B Todd Frazier (.225, 40, 98), RF Avisail Garcia (.245, 12, 51), DH Matt Davidson (missed much of last season with broken right foot), C Omar Narvaez (.267, 1, 10), 2B Tyler Saladino (.282, 8, 38).
Rotation: LH Jose Quintana (13-12, 3.20 ERA), RH Miguel Gonzalez (5-8, 3.73), LH Derek Holland (7-9, 4.95 ERA in 22 games with Texas), RH James Shields (6-19, 5.85 in 33 starts with Padres and White Sox), LH Carlos Rodon (9-10, 4.04).
Key relievers: RH David Robertson (5-3, 3.47, 37/44 saves), RH Nate Jones (5-3, 2.29, 3 saves), LH Dan Jennings (4-3, 2.08), RH Zach Putnam (1-0, 2.30), RH Michael Ynoa (1-0, 3.00). Hot Spot: Triple-A Charlotte. With Giolito, Lopez and Moncada likely to begin the season in Triple-A, many White Sox fans might keep a closer watch on the Knights than the big league club. The development of the franchise's suddenly rich minor league system will help determine the trajectory of Chicago's new rebuilding project.
Outlook: Lots of losses and trades. Quintana and Frazier likely will be shipped out at some point this season, and Robertson also could be on the move in the right deal. The White Sox seem fully committed to a major overhaul, and they added several prospects when they traded away Sale and Eaton over the winter. But it could be a rough couple of years while general manager Rick Hahn tries to establish a more reliable pipeline of talent throughout the organization. In the meantime, the White Sox still have Anderson, who was impressive in his first major league stint last year. Abreu is going for his fourth straight season of at least 25 homers and 100 RBIs.
PREVIEW
White Sox's Quintana faces K.C., seeking first win of season
 

CHICAGO -- Left-hander Jose Quintana will aim for his first win of the season when he and the Chicago White Sox face the Kansas City Royals on Wednesday afternoon.

Quintana (0-4, 6.17 ERA) has lost all four of his starts since inheriting the role of White Sox ace from Chris Sale, who was traded to the Boston Red Sox in the offseason. He has allowed 16 earned runs in 23 1/3 innings and walked 4.6 batters per nine innings, more than double his rate of 2.2 from 2016.

Despite his struggles, Quintana said he is confident that the victories will come.

"Absolutely, man," said Quintana, who earned his first All-Star selection last season. "It's the first month, and I want to be in a better position, but this happens. Head up and go and be ready for the next start and get some wins, that's all."

The White Sox (10-9) have performed above expectations despite Quintana's turbulence. They have scored 28 runs in three straight wins after Todd Frazier drove in three runs Tuesday in a 10-5 win over Kansas City.

Chicago has scored 10-plus runs in back-to-back games for the first time since 2012, and the club is going for its first sweep of the season against a Royals team that beat the White Sox 14 times in 19 meetings in 2016.

Meanwhile, little has gone right for Kansas City, which has dropped six games in a row while getting outscored 36-11.

The Royals (7-13) have been swept by the Minnesota Twins and Texas Rangers this season, and they will try to avoid their third sweep in the season's first month.

Kansas City manager Ned Yost hoped a strong finish to the Tuesday game would translate into a better performance Wednesday. Brandon Moss and Mike Moustakas each clubbed home runs in the ninth inning.

"Maybe that will help get us going here a little bit," Yost said.

Royals right-hander Nathan Karns (0-1, 6.35 ERA) will try for his first win of 2017 as he makes his fourth start of the season and the 50th start of his career. The 29-year-old is 14-10 with a 4.53 ERA in parts of five seasons with the Washington Nationals, Tampa Bay Rays, Seattle Mariners and Kansas City.

An afternoon start could spell good news for Karns, who typically does his best work before dinner.

Karns has not lost in his past five daytime starts, and he is 3-2 with a 2.94 ERA in 12 career starts during the day. In each of those 12 outings, he has pitched at least five innings.

Karns is 0-1 with a 4.96 ERA in three career starts against the White Sox. He has not faced Chicago since 2015, when he was a member of the Rays.

Quintana has not fared well against Kansas City during much of his career. In 22 career starts, he is 1-9 with a 4.39 ERA. His lone victory against the Royals was Sept. 5, 2015.

Shaky numbers against the Royals and this season have not diminished Quintana's spirit heading into Wednesday.

"We have a long season," Quintana said. "I'm not frustrated right now. Sometimes, this happens, and I never look back. Every time I try to go ahead and keep going. That's it."
