The Johnny Damon talks haven’t just picked up, but now the White Sox front office is feeling like they may have “significantly” closed the gap between themselves and Detroit for the free agent’s services.
That was the word from several sources on Wednesday afternoon … If the Sox do land Damon the plan is to primarily use him as their DH, giving him some reps in the outfield.
UPDATE: The Detroit News: Tigers don’t like being used in Johnny Damon sweepstakes.
