Mike DiGiovanna of the Los Angeles Times reports that the White Sox and
Adam Dunn are near agreement on a four-year, $56 million contract.
Dunn's
asking price was four years and $60 million, but he probably made a
slight concession because of the quality of the White Sox organization
and his desire to join an immediate contender. A left-handed batter, he
blasted 38 home runs for the Nationals this past season and should do
quite well inside the hitting-friendly confines of Chicago's US Cellular
Field.
According to Joe Cowley of the Chicago Sun-Times, several White Sox players believe the club is close to re-signing Paul Konerko.

The
White Sox are also near a deal with free agent Adam Dunn. GM Kenny
Williams has a reputation for being aggressive and moving quickly in
negotiations, so it's quite possible that both are signed before next
week's Winter Meetings. The Diamondbacks and Orioles were also showing
interest in Konerko, who batted .312 with 39 homers and 111 RBI this
past season in Chicago.
