White Sox Interested In Yasiel Puig?
There are conflicting reports about the Chicago White Sox and OF Yasiel Puig.
The White Sox want Yasiel Puig if they make a deal with the Dodgers.

The #Whitesox insist they are not having any trade talks with #Dodgers involving Yasiel Puig

Of course both these reports could be true if the White Sox like Puig, but the Dodgers haven't called yet. With the Dodgers landing Josh Reddick in a trade, Puig is available. It's unclear what the Dodgers would want in a Puig trade, although there's a chance he could be part of a bigger deal for one of the White Sox's starters.
Latest On Chris Sale
Sale is the biggest name that could potentially be dealt before the deadline. The Red Sox were among the teams trying to land Sale.
The Boston #RedSox had late-night talks with the #WhiteSox about Chris Sale. If Sale is moved, #RedSox and #Dodgers are likely destinations.

However, that appears to no longer be the case.
Told #Redsox are NOT discussing Sale #whitesox

That was backed by a report from the Boston Globe. It seems the cost to get Sale is too high for teams at the moment. The Dodgers, Rangers and Red Sox have been the three teams most linked to Sale.
