John Danks is on his way to being one of the top pitchers in the AL. After closing '08 with an ERA in the low 3's, Danks is allowing less than a run a game this season and allowing just nine hits in 19 innings. The Seattle Mariners are in a tough spot as they are forced to go with minor-league journeyman Chris Jakubauskas. Jakubauskas is a 30-year-old rookie that pitched most of his minor league career in the independent leagues. He has made two major league starts and hasn't been very impressive. Seattle has gotten off to a good start because the top and middle of their rotation has been outstanding, but that role reverses for this one, so I like the White Sox to get the win here.
