If last Friday was Adrian Houser's final start in a Chicago White Sox uniform, he made it a memorable one. He also may have made a final good impression on a team interested in acquiring him before the July 31 trade deadline.
Houser allowed just three runs in 6.2 innings during the White Sox's 12-5 slaughter of the crosstown rival Cubs on Friday. The win snapped an eight-game losing streak the White Sox had in the Crosstown Classic.
The Athletic's Cubs beat reporter, Patrick Mooney, reports the Cubs have interest in acquiring the White Sox pitcher.
