Could Sunday's first-half finale double as Lucas Giolito's last home start as a member of the Chicago White Sox?
Giolito is pitching effectively as he gets set to face the St. Louis Cardinals, and with a contract that expires after the season, he could be attractive trade bait as the White Sox sink in the American League Central standings.
Despite a record that's 15 games under .500, the White Sox stand eight games behind Central-leading Cleveland entering play Sunday. St. Louis will start an enigma of its own in left-hander Steven Matz . Sent to the bullpen in late May after season-opening struggles in the starting rotation, Matz takes the rotation spot of Adam Wainwright , who recently landed on the injured list.
"That's what we need, and that's what we've been counting on," Cardinals manager Oliver Marmol said. "And they're starting to show well, which is a positive for us."
