A new story is out on ESPN, saying that the ChiSox are "extremely close" to getting Alfonso Soriano:
The White Sox are "extremely close" to trading for Nationals outfielder Alfonso Soriano, a source close to the situation told ESPN The Magazine's Tim Kurkjian. The Nationals have great interest in pitcher Brandon McCarthy.
Not much to say here, until we hear who would be involved. McCarthy would be a very nice return for the Nationals, though...
