D-Backs, White Sox near Vazquez deal
Righty appears headed to Sox for El Duque, prospect Young

--------------------

I don't like this deal for 2 reasons.

1. Dealing Chris Young is a mistake. Jeremy Reed was one thing, but Young is one of the few top 5 tool players that we have left in our system. Not quite sure if Brian Anderson is the answer @ center. Young is a good guy to have around just in case.

2. Getting Vazquez means that McCarthy doesn't have a place in the starting rotation next season.
