    White Sox get Francisco Liriano

    The Chicago White Sox have traded for left-hander Francisco Liriano from the Minnesota Twins for infielder Eduardo Escobar and lefty Pedro Hernandez.


    Liriano
    Liriano, 28, is 3-10 with a 5.31 ERA this season, shuffling between the team's rotation and bullpen. He has gone 50-52 with a 4.33 ERA during his eight major league seasons.
    Liriano tossed a no-hitter against the White Sox on May 3, 2011.
    Escobar was batting .207 with three RBI in 36 games this season with the White Sox. Hernandez is a combined 8-2 with a 2.94 ERA between Double-A Birmingham and Triple-A Charlotte this season.

    I remember when this guy was a fukking monster early in his career, hope Cooper can get him back on that track

    Hightly erratic, and not to counted on. Impossible to predict how a Liiriano outing will go.

    The fact that Minnesota was willing to give him up inside the division means something.

    Good thing about Liriano is by the start of the second inning you'll know if he's on or not.

    Dude is either totally hot or totally ice cold.
