White Sox Sign Teahen to 3-Year Extension
It looks like the White Sox weren't involved in the Winter Meeting's first big blockbuster, but that doesn't mean they weren't making suprising moves, signing Mark Teahen to a 3-year extension. The Sox lone position of depth appears to be third base, the position that Mark Teahen was supposedly...

This Week in White Sox Minor League Baseball
This week: The big story, of course, was the promotion of Gordon Beckham to Charlotte. After hitting .303/.363/.503 in 37 games for Birmingham, he didn't have a great deal left to prove with his bat. The move to AAA, however, permits the White Sox to get him time at third without having to move...
