Top 10 Prospects from John Sickels:

http://www.minorleagueball.com/2009/12/9/1194068/chicago-whitesox-top-20-prospects#storyjump:


1) Dan Hudson, RHP: A personal favorite, since I rated him as a big sleeper pre-season and he really broke through.

2) Jared Mitchell, : Grade A tools, refinement is a Grade C/C+ right now.

3) Tyler Flowers, C: Power and patience are plusses, defense has improved a great deal according to all reports.

4) Brent Morel, 3B: I think he's underrated. Only questions about power at higher levels keep him from a Grade B. Now blocked behind Mark Teahen, a long-term signing I don't understand.

5) Jordan Danks, OF: I like the tools and think the bat may still come around.

6) Dayan Viciedo, 3B: Cutting him some slack since he was young for Double-A and was pushed fast, but this is a good example of why we need performance data rather than just hype and team propaganda/scouting reports when evaluating players.

7) David Holmberg, LHP: Will the fastball get faster? If it does his stock could go up quickly.

8. C.J. Retherford, 2B: He can hit despite unimpressive tools. Not sure how he fits into long-term plans.

9) Christian Marrero, 1B-OF: Looks underrated to me. Could be a good platoon player.

10) Santos Rodriguez, LHP: Gotta love the strikeouts, but a long way from being ready to help. High ceiling though.

The White Sox release Alejandro De Aza.

Carlos on the block

For the right price yes

The White Sox trade Bobby Jenks and Alexi Ramirez to the Cincinnati Reds for Brandon Phillips and Arthur Rhodes.

White Sox release C Cole armstrong.

I'll trade pitching prospect DJ Mitchell for Linebrink.

-Yankees

Not especially. Wasn't he horrible last year?

Not really anywhere to go but down when you go 48-48 in 2008 haha... he wasn't healthy in the first half, and then he was overworked

Danks available? Check cardinals roster

No, I traded him in the Pujols deal.

Joba, Melky, Juan Miranda, and Christian Garcia for Peavy and Santeliz.

Replace Brett Gardner instead of Melky and its a deal
