FRANCISCO LIRIANO GOES TO THE WHITE SOX

Nugget time! It's being revealed by the Associated Press, HERE, that the White Sox, after failing to land Zack Greinke, have in fact acquired Francisco Liriano in exchange for Eduardo Escobar and Pedro Hernandez.

Paul Konerko said of the acquisition, “He just has to come here and be solid... He doesn’t have to throw shutouts. He just has to give us a chance to win. That’s all we’re looking for.”

We can cross another guy off the Yankees pitching list.  First Cole Hamels, then Matt Garza gets hurt and will have some throwing sessions to determine if he's tradeable (read HERE), Zack Greinke goes to the Angels (Read HERE) and now there's word of Francisco Liriano.  Will the Yankees sign a starting pitcher or will they stay with what they have? Stay tuned.
