Heyman: More Moves Could Come For White Sox

(WSCR) It's no secret White Sox general manager Kenny Williams is one of the most aggressive GMs in the game.

With the trade deadline rapidly approaching, Williams has already made three major moves with the additions of Kevin Youkilis, Brett Myers and, most recently, Francisco Liriano.

Everyone thinks that their farm system is one of the weakest in the game. To have come up with Youkilis, Myers and and Lirano, that's pretty good.

Heyman also said the addition of Liriano could be bad news for the return of John Danks, who has been on the disabled list since May 20.

"There doesn't seem to be a timetable for Danks at this point, so (the Liriano trade is a) very good move for them," Heyman said. "Liriano has a lot of ability. He's been somewhat up and down, but for a No. 5 starter, it's pretty darn good.
