Did you say Derek Holland Kenny?
Source: #Rangers would only move Holland for Thornton if #WhiteSox expanded deal to include a starter such as Danks. #tradedeadline #MLB—

John Danks? Kenny just hung up:
#chisox telling teams john danks is not available. makes sense. they are only 2 out in L column. #tradedeadline—

But there is another suitor:
#mlb #Red Sox pushing hard for Carlos Quentin and LHP Thornton, but #White Sox would have to be overwhelmed with prospects# tradedeadline—

You mean the Yankee$ aren’t among the suitors? Well:
Sense #Whitesox have really fallen out love with Thornton, would love move $13M owed '12-'13. #Yankees among teams watching the LHR—

One more:
Dbacks would love LHP Matt Thornton, but source says it "can't happen" given White Sox demand of top prospects whom Dbacks won't give up.—
