 CHICAGO (AP) - Mark Buehrle is staying with the White Sox. The left-hander agreed to a four-year, $56 million deal Sunday, ending weeks of trade speculation about Chicago's best pitcher.
Fans at Sunday's game were told over the public address system that Buehrle had signed as the White Sox left the field following a 6-3 win over the Minnesota Twins. In the eighth inning, Buehrle was seen in the dugout hugging manager Ozzie Guillen and his teammates.
"Knowing that he's going to be here takes a load off everyone. What a happy day. It's pretty cool," Chicago's Jim Thome said. "You play with guys, and when this time of year comes around, you always hear different rumors."
