Lynn (knee) will only miss one start after being placed on the injured list with right knee inflammation, Jesse Rogers of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Manager Tony La Russa confirmed that Lynn's IL placement was a precautionary move. The righty's ERA has risen from 2.04 to 2.59 after 13 runs in his last 21 innings, but he remains one of the top pitchers in baseball and will be needed at full health if the White Sox are to go far in the postseason.
