The White Sox reportedly are close to a deal with free agent pitcher Gio Gonzalez.

The former All-Star was 3-2 with a 3.50 ERA in 8713 innings last season with the Brewers. He went on the injured list on June 1 with what manager Craig Counsell called a case of “dead arm.” He returned on July 20 and made 11 starts.

He was named an All-Star in 2011 while with the Oakland A’s, and again the following year with the Washington Nationals.

Gonzalez was drafted by the White Sox in 2004 and was traded to the Phillies the following year. He returned to the White Sox organization in 2008 and was dealt to Oakland in 2011.
