"Chicago White Sox general manager Ken Williams said Saturday that he's willing to listen to offers this off-season but won't settle for minor league talent in return.

In an interview with WMVP-AM 1000, Williams admitted that the offers might not be overwhelming because so many players had subpar 2011 seasons.

Without naming names, Williams appeared willing to listen to offers for right fielder Carlos Quentin and pitchers John Danks, Gavin Floyd and Matt Thornton if the right proposals were tendered.

"What we have to do is weigh whatever they're offering up against our chances for the next season," Williams told the "Talking Baseball" show. "Because if we're going to move our valuable pieces, it's going to be for major league-ready talent as they can grow with this nice nucleus in place.""
