Torii Hunter Leaning Toward Joining White Sox

Posted by jason on Nov. 21, 2007, 4:33pm

TORII TORN BETWEEN SOUTH SIDE & SOUTHFORK RANCH: After parting ways with the Minnesota Twins, Torii Hunter could soon be dialing up home runs at U.S. Cellular Field:

The CHICAGO SUN-TIMES reports that although 5 different teams have made offers, the free-agent outfielder has narrowed down his choice between the White Sox and Texas Rangers.Hunter recently feasted on a steak dinner at the 30-acre ranch of Rangers owner Tom Hicks, who then offered a six-year deal to the slugger for dessert. Torii also happens to have a home in the Dallas area.

But the All-Star also likes what he hears from White Sox GM Ken Williams. After meeting with Sox officials, Hunter said about Williams, “He wants to win. You’ve got to like that….He’s impressive.”

Although Torii has claimed that he’s “not leaning one way or another” toward any team at the moment, sources close to him say the South Side would be his first choice.Hunter is expected to make his decision by early next week.
