Alejandro De Aza - OF - White Sox
FOX Sports' Jon Morosi reports that the Rangers have expressed interest in Alejandro De Aza.
Texas is also courting White Sox outfielder Alex Rios. De Aza, 29, is batting .275/.332/.437 with 12 homers and 11 stolen bases in 93 games this season for Chicago. He carries more years of contractual control than Rios but Rios has the better offensive track record. As always, it's going to come down to the asking price.

Ok maybe not better exactly but maybe their waiting to see if someone presents a better offer. Like Pittsburgh who is battling with STL for that division.

Royals have spoken to Sox about Rios (wouldn't touch KCs prospects).

For the love of god Hahn go get Garcia or Castellanos from Detroit. I don't care if you give up Addison Reed and Jesse Crain.

From Boston? He's 24 year old 3rd baseman right?
Looking at his stats at boston this year...yikes.

Middlebrooks could use a change of scenery.
Maybe not for Peavy but i'd certainly like to buy low on him.

Given what the Sox have at 3rd, sign me up for Middlebrooks.

Cardinals Rumors: St. Louis discussing Alexei Ramirez with White Sox
BY ROBERT MURRAY | PUBLISHED 7/24/2013
After Rafael Furcal got hurt earlier this year, the Cardinals have had a big hole at shortstop. They've tried many different options, but none of them have worked. The Cardinals have now turned to the trade market to try to find a replacement for Furcal and have one shortstop in particular that they are interested in.
The Cardinals are showing interest in White Sox shortstop Alexei Ramirez, according to Jim Bowden of ESPN and Mark Gonzales of the Chicago Tribune. Yesterday, Mark reported that the White Sox rejected an offer that would have sent Cardinals top pitching prospect Carlos Martinez to the White Sox in return for Ramirez. Earlier today, Jon Heyman of CBS refuted that report, but did say that he wouldn't be surprised if the Cardinals were interested in Alexei Ramirez.
It is easy to see why the Cardinals are interested in Ramirez. They have a need for a shortstop, Ramirez is relatively young, as he is 31-years old and he is under contract until 2015 with a team option for 2016. Ramirez was once thought as a promising shortstop prospect, but has struggled recently. He was very good through his first four years in the big leagues, as he averaged 17.25 home runs per year. He has struggled the last three years, as he has only hit a combined total of 10 home runs in his last 924 at-bats.
Ramirez is one of the better shortstops that is available on the trade market, so expect him to be coveted by multiple teams. On the year, Ramirez is hitting .281 with one home run, 23 RBI's and 20 stolen bases. If acquired by the Cardinals, Ramirez would immediately step in as the starting shortstop and hope to fill the void at short. If he does fill the void at short, the Cardinals could be even more dangerous than they were before, which is a scary thought.

Man did I call that. CBS Dan Knobler already talking about how the Braves should go for Peavy. This does nothing but RAISE his value. I like it.

Peavy's a gamer. Let him go compete and see how he is during his second start. Hope he performs well like 6 IP 6 Ks 2 ERs or less. and 1 BB or less.

Per mlbtraderumors.com
An industry source tells Alex Speier of WEEI.com that Middlebrooks hasn't been discussed with the White Sox in "any context."
@Buster_ESPN
CWS have exchanged trade ideas/offers on Peavy, but teams say they are unsure about whether they want to keep him for '14. Price tag high.
That's twice our sox writers have been debunked. First by Jon Heyman on the White Sox rejecting Carlos Martinez and second by Alex Speier.
