The Astros enter this game coming off a loss against the Boston Red Sox in the last game of their three-game set. Pitcher Brad Peacock (4-2) will get the start and build upon his last outing, where he allowed just one run through five innings pitched.
Peacock has allowed just the one run through his last 12 innings, which is very encouraging after he allowed seven earned runs through three and two-thirds innings against the Minnesota Twins.

Astros Lineup
The Astros will be without George Springer for the opener as he has a stiff back. They'll still have plenty of firepower for Monday's tilt, as they will deploy Josh Reddick in the leadoff spot, with Alex Bregman and Michael Brantley backing him up.

Peacock and Wade Miley swapped spots in the rotation, so Miley took his spot on Sunday against Chris Sale and the Boston Red Sox. Peacock clearly got the more favorable end of this swap, as he now gets to face a middle of the pack White Sox offense.
White Sox Lineup
The White Sox enter this game coming off a 5-2 loss in their final game against the Toronto Blue Jays, and split the series at two games apiece. They'll get back their young star outfielder Eloy Jimenez on Monday night, as he will bat sixth in his return.

Jimenez hit well in his five-game rehab stint, as he posted a .318 batting average and absolutely hammered a monster home run.
#WhiteSox slugger Eloy Jimenez is looking healthy. #MLB's No. 3 overall prospect, currently on a rehab assignment with @KnightsBaseball, just crushed this monster homer.

The White Sox are feeling all of these injuries to their rotation now, and will need to find a long term solution soon. For now, they're just looking to get through Monday night.
