KEY GAME INFORMATION
SEATTLE: 2017: 78-84, tied for third place.
MANAGER: Scott Servais (third season).
ADDITIONS: CF Dee Gordon, 1B Ryon Healy, RHP Juan Nicasio, INF-OF Andrew Romine, OF Ichiro Suzuki, LHP Dario Alvarez.
SUBTRACTIONS: 1B Yonder Alonso, OF Jarrod Dyson, LHP Drew Smyly, 1B Danny Valencia, C Carlos Ruiz, RHP Yovani Gallardo, RHP Emilio Pagan.
OUTLOOK: The Mariners' odd place in the AL was only amplified by what happened to them in spring training. Injuries illustrated the slim margin they have if they plan to contend for a playoff spot. They're talented enough to compete for a wild card, but probably not good enough to catch the Astros in the division. Pitching will be the key. Seattle used a major league-record 40 pitchers last year and would like to avoid a repeat performance. The bullpen has promise, putting pressure on the rotation to stabilize and get deep enough into games. Right-handed reliever David Phelps needs Tommy John surgery and will miss the entire season, though. Offensively, the top of the lineup has a chance to be potent with the addition of a speedster in Gordon. Healy missed most of spring training after hand surgery, but if he's productive Seattle could end up fielding its deepest lineup in years. That might be necessary with all the pitching questions.
CHI WHITE SOX: 2017: 67-95, fourth place.
MANAGER: Rick Renteria (second season).
ADDITIONS: RHP Miguel Gonzalez, C Welington Castillo.
SUBTRACTIONS: LHP Derek Holland, RHP Mike Pelfrey, RHP Al Alburquerque, RHP Jake Petricka, C Geovany Soto, OF-2B Alen Hanson, RHP Zach Putnam.
OUTLOOK: For a team with five straight losing seasons and a record that ranked among baseball's worst last year, the White Sox are generating plenty of buzz. That's because they're loaded with promising young players after going all-in on a rebuild prior to last season. The moves have sparked a belief that better days are ahead. Moncada and hard-throwing pitchers Giolito and Lopez showed promise in the majors last season. Right-hander Michael Kopech, outfielder Eloy Jimenez and outfielder Luis Robert are elite prospects on their way in the minors. Garcia, coming off a breakout season, is looking to prove he's not a one-hit wonder. Anderson hopes to bounce back from a trying season in which a close friend was shot to death. Abreu is back after the slugger was viewed as a potential trade candidate this winter. Left-hander Carlos Rodon is expected to be out until at least June following shoulder surgery last September. It's not clear when he'll be ready. Rodon also was sidelined at the start a year ago because of shoulder and biceps problems. The big question is whether he'll ever develop into the pitcher the White Sox envisioned when they drafted him with the No. 3 overall pick in 2014.
PREVIEW
Mariners' Hernandez to start 20th career game vs. White Sox
 

The ace known as "King Felix" is about to add another opponent to his 20-start club.

On Wednesday, Seattle Mariners right-hander Felix Hernandez will face the Chicago White Sox for the 20th time in his 14-season career. The White Sox will become the fifth team to go up against Hernandez at least 20 times, joining the Texas Rangers (55), Los Angeles Angels of Anaheim (51), Oakland A's (47) and New York Yankees (21).

Unlike most teams, the White Sox have had a decent amount of success against the six-time All-Star and 2010 American League Cy Young Award winner. Hernandez heads into the game with a 6-6 record and 3.72 ERA in 125 2/3 innings against Chicago. He has allowed 19 home runs in 19 starts.

Seattle (12-10) is hoping for a strong performance from its veteran leader in order to win the series against Chicago (5-15). The White Sox won Monday's series opener 10-4 before the Mariners responded with a 1-0 victory on Tuesday to set up a rubber match at Guaranteed Rate Field.

Five times in the last seven games, Seattle's pitchers have given up at least seven runs. Inconsistency has plagued Hernandez as well as the rest of the staff. He is 2-2 with a 5.06 ERA in five starts this year.

"We need to get more innings out of our starting pitching," Mariners manager Scott Servais told the team's official website. "Ultimately, to put (winning) streaks together, you have to have consistent starting pitching that can keep you in the game."

The White Sox want to see a quality start from right-hander James Shields, who much like Hernandez has great career statistics but has slipped in the past couple seasons. The 36-year-old has posted a 1-2 record with a 6.17 ERA in five games (four starts) on the season.

In 18 career starts against Seattle, Shields is 5-7 with a 4.59 ERA. He has given up 23 home runs in those outings but has struck out 111 batters in 117 2/3 innings.

This season has not started well for the White Sox, who have lost eight of their past nine games. Frustrations bubbled over Tuesday as manager Rick Renteria was ejected for the first time this season and for the 15th time in his career after he argued balls and strikes.

White Sox third baseman Matt Davidson said he appreciated his manager's competitive fire.

"He backs us 100 percent," Davidson said to the Chicago Tribune. "It feels good to have a manager who will do that for you. We all love him, and so do I."

White Sox shortstop Tim Anderson will try to build positive momentum off a two-hit performance Tuesday. He is hitting .267 with three home runs, five RBIs and eight stolen bases in 20 games.

For the Mariners, right fielder Mitch Haniger continues to swing a hot bat. The 27-year-old homered in four consecutive games from Friday through Monday, and on Tuesday he drove in the game's only run. He is hitting .321 with eight home runs and 24 RBIs in 22 games.

Seattle is 7-5 on the road this season. Chicago is 2-9 at home.
