White Sox Will Be 'Open' To Dealing Young Pitchers For Hitting 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Tue Sep 10, 2013 3:00 pm

The Chicago White Sox struggled offensively this season and Rick Hahn says the club will make changing that a priority this winter.


"We will have to wait for the market to open and then we will see," Hahn said of free agent targets. "Again, we have work to do especially on the position-player side of things, and the main avenues outside the farm system are free agency and trades. Given our expectations and the amount of work we have to do, I think we'll be active in both.


"At the Trade Deadline, we heard a lot about our young pitching, and I suspect that will continue into the offseason and we will remain open minded about all of it. While it's a strength and might be a strength to dip into a little bit to help augment other needs, it's not one we want to compromise too greatly because that is how we feel ultimately we will compete."
