With recent injuries to Lance Lynn and Lucas Giolito, the Chicago White Sox found themselves in a precarious spot and called up Jimmy Lambert to make a start in a crucial series against the Oakland A’s.
With the remaining schedule, the next two opponents that the Sox are facing are by far going to be the most challenging in the Boston Red Sox and Oakland A’s.
