Chicago White Sox hopeful Carlos Rodon can pitch in playoffs

DETROIT -- The Chicago White Sox are hopeful lefty Carlos Rodon will be ready for the postseason despite experiencing soreness in his pitching arm during and after Monday's outing against the Detroit Tigers.

Rodon, 28, threw only 69 pitches in three innings before leaving the game, which the White Sox lost 4-3.

"He was sore this morning," manager Tony La Russa said Tuesday. "Hopefully its normal soreness. We'll do a bunch of stuff to get him ready and keep our fingers crossed that Wednesday he's good to go."

Rodon has been dealing with arm fatigue throughout the later stages of the season.
