In a bit of a surprise move, the Chicago White Sox claimed Alex Rios off of waivers from Toronto late Monday night.
Rios is struggling through a rough 2008 season, and his .264 average and .317 OBP are well below his career-averages. But, Sox GM Kenny Williams hopes that Rios can come in and provide relief for banged-up starters like Carlos Quentin and the struggling Jermaine Dye.
Hopefully, he's a bit more receptive to the fans in Chicago than he was here.
