| |  | CHI WHITE SOX: CHICAGO (AP) - From rock bottom last season to contention this year? The Chicago White Sox see no reason why it can't happen.
They're ready to put last season's 99-loss wreck behind them and make a jump at least back to respectability, if not a run at the AL Central title.
They see a team with solid pitching, a new slugger in Jose Abreu and renewed vigor. Now, all they have to do is back it up.
''You have to pitch, you have to hit, you have to score,'' said manager Robin Ventura, entering his third season. ''You have to play defense. You have to do all of them in our division. Detroit has won it the last few years. They have a combination of everything. Unless you do that, you're not going to be close. We proved that last year.''
They had the pitching part down last season. The rest? Well, that's where things got dicey.
| | DETROIT: DETROIT (AP) - When Justin Verlander takes the mound for Detroit on opening day, maybe then the Tigers will be able to enjoy a much-needed sense of normalcy.
As an offseason of drama gave way to spring training injuries, it was easy to forget the Tigers still have one of the most talented rosters in baseball. Sure, there have been some early problems for new manager Brad Ausmus to address, Detroit still figures to be the favorite to win its fourth consecutive AL Central title.
''We have a new look this year,'' outfielder Torii Hunter said. ''Little bit more speed and we'll miss the big man, but we'll score some runs.''
The ''big man'' is Prince Fielder, whom the Tigers traded to Texas in a blockbuster deal that brought second baseman Ian Kinsler to Detroit. That move gave the Tigers more financial flexibility, although they weren't all that aggressive in pursuing free agents. Detroit did sign Joe Nathan to replace departed closer Joaquin Benoit.
The Tigers also traded right-hander Doug Fister to Washington.
Lately, the focus has been on right-hander Max Scherzer, who enters his final season before free agency after winning the Cy Young Award in 2013. Negotiations with the Tigers on a long-term deal have stalled.
''They respect where I'm at. I respect where they're at, and we'll revisit this after the season,'' Scherzer said. ''I still want to be in Detroit. I love this clubhouse and everything about it. There's been a history of this team signing free agents so hopefully I'll be a part of that history as well.''
But right now Scherzer's future is uncertain, and with Hunter and Victor Martinez in the final season of their contracts, it's hard to say what Detroit's 2015 roster will look like.
So the Tigers may never have a better chance to win a World Series with this group than right now.

*White Sox-Tigers Preview* ==========================
By JORDAN GARRETSON STATS Writer
Chicago (70-84) at Detroit (86-68), 7:08 p.m. EDT
The Detroit Tigers could have had more breathing room in the AL Central had they taken better advantage of their season series against the weaker teams in their division.
They'll look to improve upon a mediocre record versus the Chicago White Sox on Monday night in the opener of a three-game set at Comerica Park.
The Tigers (86-69) lost 5-2 Sunday in Kansas City, squandering a chance to sweep the second-place Royals. However, two wins in the three-game set pushed their lead in the AL Central to 1 1/2 games and finished 13-6 against their closest pursuers.
They've still won nine of 13 while averaging 5.2 runs, with J.D. Martinez and Torii Hunter both swinging hot bats. Martinez has batted .577 during a seven-game hitting streak, while Hunter is 13 for 32 while hitting safely in seven straight.
Hunter has also hit .462 during a separate seven-game streak against the White Sox.
Despite being in position to win its fourth straight division title, Detroit hasn't looked the part against the White Sox - the teams have split 16 games. The Tigers are 3-4 at home, with their relievers getting charged with two of those losses while posting a 9.31 ERA.
Detroit will conclude its season with four home games versus last-place Minnesota, a team it's 7-8 against.
"Hopefully we'll come home and it'll get loud," Hunter said. "It's going to be fun. It shouldn't be hard to get pumped up. If you don't have that adrenaline now you're not human. You should check your pulse."
Jose Abreu has been one of the biggest reasons Chicago has been competitive against Detroit. He has hit .433 with five home runs and 13 RBIs in 16 games against the Tigers, and he also owns a .500 on-base percentage over his last nine overall.
However, the White Sox also had Adam Dunn - now with Oakland - for 12 games against Detroit, in which he had five home runs and 10 RBIs.
Chicago's 10-5 win at Tampa Bay on Sunday was just its fourth in 15 road games. Former Tiger Avisail Garcia was 3 for 5 with two home runs and has hit .340 with 11 RBIs over his last 11 matchups with his former club.
Rookies will get the starting nod for both teams, with Detroit's Kyle Lobstein (1-0, 3.58 ERA) making his first start since not recording a decision in a 5-4 win over Cleveland on Sept. 13, when he allowed four runs in five innings.
"He was fine," manager Brad Ausmus told MLB's official website. "He wasn't as much down in the zone as he had been in his previous starts."
Chris Bassitt (0-1, 5.29) had a difficult time in the White Sox's 7-5 win at Kansas City on Tuesday, needing 94 pitches to get through 3 2-3 innings while allowing three runs and four walks. He took an 8-4 loss to Detroit in his big-league debut Aug. 30, giving up five runs over 6 1-3 innings.
