Starting with Schmidt
Jul 10 - The White Sox are in the market to upgrade their pitching, and are said to be pursuing Giants right-hander Jason Schmidt.
"Typical Kenny Williams," a club executive who had heard this talk told ESPN.com's Jayson Stark and ESPN The Magazine's Buster Olney. "Laying in the weeds, staying quiet and trying to make the biggest deal of them all."
It's believed the White Sox would trade young right-hander Brandon McCarthy along with center fielder Brian Anderson for Schmidt. But before making this deal, the White Sox would have to make a companion trade for a replacement center fielder.
