CHICAGO (AP) -

Chicago White Sox first baseman Paul Konerko is preparing to start a rehab assignment in the minors.

Konerko will play several games at Double-A Birmingham starting tomorrow. He's been sidelined for two weeks with a lower back strain.

The White Sox will kick-off the second half of the MLB season on Friday as they host the Atlanta Braves. John Danks is scheduled to be on the mound for the Sox.
