Another major-league source told the Chicago Tribune that talks linking Chicago White Sox reliever Bobby Jenks and the New York Mets never progressed. Chicago general manager Kenny Williams scouted Mets pitching prospect Bobby Parnell at an Arizona Fall League game last month, but New York is disinclined to trade Parnell, the source said.
The Sox don't have a bona fide backup to Jenks, who has 117 saves in 3A? major-league seasons and has an 87.9 career save percentage.
Jenks is expected to increase his salary to at least $5 million in his first year as an arbitration-eligible player.
