MINNEAPOLIS -- In May, the Chicago White Sox were dreaming of a possible playoff race with three left-handers anchoring the starting rotation.One day away from the major-league trade deadline, Chicago is now a seller and uncertainty marks each of left-handers Carlos Rodon, Chris Sale and Jose Quintana.Brian Dozier hit two home runs to spoil Rodons first start since July 5, and the Minnesota Twins handed the White Sox a 6-4 loss on Sunday. Melky Cabrera had three hits for Chicago, which lost for the fourth time in five games.Its not an excuse, Rodon (2-8) said of his absence while recovering from a sprained left wrist. I just got to be better. A team scores four runs, you got to keep these guys at less than four, man, thats my job. I didnt do it today.The recent stretch only reinforced the White Sox trade-deadline position. Before the game, Chicago traded left-handed reliever Zach Duke to the St. Louis Cardinals for speedy minor-league outfielder Charlie Tilson.Sale and Quintana, meanwhile, have been mentioned in trade rumors leading into Mondays deadline after the team started 23-10 this season and had Sale looking like a Cy Young Award candidate.The White Sox are 6-11 since the All-Star break after previously trading for starter James Shields and signing Justin Morneau as a free agent.Rodon managed to last 6 1/3 innings in his return to the rotation but gave up five earned runs and eight hits with two walks and seven strikeouts. Kennys Vargas hit a two-run homer as part of a three-run first inning for Minnesota.They jumped on him pretty good there early, Chicago manager Robin Ventura said. Probably knocked a little rust off, and get back into it. He battled back. Velocity-wise, he started getting a little stronger as the game went along. I think thats maybe par for the course for as long as hes been away, and still trying to feel for it somewhat.Rodon lost his fourth straight decision and allowed two home runs for the third straight start. The No. 3 overall pick in the 2014 draft, Rodon owns a 4.67 ERA and has giving up 14 earned runs in his last three starts.Not everybody gets it the first time through, that they become dominant, Ventura said. Stuff-wise, hes got some great stuff. Youre going to have to find your way and I think thats part of what hes going through right now. Hes a thrower, not a feel guy, hes just trying to rear back and let it go. Part of that is believing in that.Twins starter Ervin Santana (4-9) didnt allow a hit until Adam Eatons leadoff bloop single in the fourth. Santana allowed three runs -- one earned -- in six innings with five strikeouts. Ryan Pressly gave up a double to Cabrera but recorded his first major-league save.Cabrera was stranded at third base to end the game when Morneau struck out.COUNTING ON CABRERACabrera recorded his fourth straight multi-hit game and his 12th three-hit game of the season. Hes hit safely in 15 of his last 16 games, hitting .385 during that stretch.Cabrera has particularly enjoyed facing Minnesota, with a .429 average in 10 games against the Twins this season.Hes so professional about the way he approaches things, Ventura said. He can pull it. He can hit it the other way. Hes not trying to do too much, hes just putting it on the barrel and its taking off.TRAINERS ROOMWhite Sox: Todd Frazier returned after missing two games with the flu.

Arrieta threw his first no-hitter at Dodger Stadium on Aug. 30 last year in a game that began shortly after 5 p.m. local time, the same starting time as Tuesday.
