Rays trade: JC Ramirez $600,000 (2018) Juan Minaya $600,000 (2018) Simon Castro $600,000 (2018-19T) AMAT pick 8.6
for
Paul Sewald $600,000 (2018-19T)
Reasoning: More or less just clearing some minor contracts of non-40 man roster guys to give me a tiny bit of cap room for one or two callups/minimum FA signings, and throwing a dart on Sewald maybe being useful by next season since I have very few bullpen guys rostered for next year. I can afford to trade a lower round AMAT pick with a near full farm system and other lower round picks in the AMAT draft while White Sox has plenty of cap space and doesn't have to use a 40-man spot to get an extra AMAT pick.

White Sox confirm.
We have 15 million in unused cap space still left over. All these contracts are expiring and I got Sewald from a trade with the Cubs for a similar type deal. So, I got two picks in the upcoming AMAT draft for absorbing about 5 million in money for one year. I wasn't likely to use that money either this year.
