The Blue Jays had planned to start J.A. Happ on Saturday against the White Sox. But they traded him to the Yankees, opening a slot for right-hander John Axford to make his major-league debut.
First pitch at Guaranteed Rate Field is 6:10 p.m.
The Sox will start Lucas Giolito, who is 7-8 with a 6.09 ERA but is enjoying a run of three straight quality starts.
Here is the White Sox lineup:
Moncada 2B
Sanchez 3B
Abreu 1B
A.Garcia RF
Delmonico LF
