PT TOMORROW: AL Central—The Trade Deadline outlook

Chicago White Sox

There's little mystery as to how the rebuilding White Sox view the trade deadline and the season's final two months. They would love to get out from under the $30+m over 2+ years still owed to serviceable John Danks (LHP, CHW), and rid themselves of the final months of veteran Adam Dunn's contract. CHW is likely getting more inquiries about Alexei Ramirez (SS, CHW), whose $10M 2015 contract (with another $10m option for 2016) looks very reasonable, but whom the White Sox feel they may not be able to adequately replace yet.

But the most likely CHW trade candidates are Dayan Viciedo (OF, CHW) and Gordon Beckham (2B, CHW), both of whom have shown flashes in 2014 and throughout their White Sox careers, but too inconsistent...
