White Sox Looking For Pitching

According to CBSSports.com's Danny Knobler, the White Sox are hunting for pitching of both the starting and relieving variety.

Based on previous reports, GM Kenny Williams is eyeing Oakland's Huston Street and Washington's Jon Rauch.  With the success of southpaws Matt Thornton and Boone Logan, it appears that Williams is focused on right-handers.  Most of the top available names aside from Street and Rauch are lefties, unless you're a David Weathers fan.

With Jose Contreras on the DL with elbow tendinitis, the Sox also may explore the starting pitching market.  So far they've only been linked in published reports to Freddy Garcia, and that was before the Contreras injury.  Plus, Ozzie Guillen doesn't seem terribly optimistic on Garcia.  The best available starters are probably Justin Duchscherer and A.J. BurnettKnobler says more than a dozen scouts watched Burnett's last start.
